How to Model AAC for a Child: Introducing a Communication Device 

How do we introduce a communication system to a child? We can start with simple modeling like this. We say the word out loud, then push the button on the device. Then we say the word again, and to do that action. Once we have modeled like this, a few times, we will start to add expectant, pauses to allow the child time to push the button on the device, or say the word himself. #slpeeps #slp #slpa #schoolslp #speechlanguagepathologist #aac #aaclearner #autism
