Communication+Board

**Communication Board** **What is it? ** A communication board assists students with limited verbal ability to communicate their ideas or wants by touching or pointing to pictures or text. **Student Choice Book ** I created a choice book for a non-verbal student who is also in a wheelchair. I saw the need when I saw that she had the ability of making choices on her own, but had difficulty expressing herself due to lack of language. She would point to things but it was hard to tell what she was pointing at. Therefore, I created 9 topics for her to choose from to express her wants. Some of the topics include colors, movement, music, and toys. Once she selects a topic she goes to the choice page and she may select her choice. For example, if she selects the movement topic she can touch whether she wants to lay down, sit, stand, dance, etc. The choices have velcro on the back, so that they can be interchanged and be increased or reduced when necessary. **............
