SHOW NOTES

On this episode I am joined by two amazing AAC SLPs, Maggie and Jeanna! These ladies are making a huge impact in their community and across the field of AAC by providing school-based AAC & assistive technology consultations, evaluations, therapy, and trainings at local and national events. They also have a YouTube channel that demonstrates how to implement AAC strategies for educators and parents.

Topics/Questions:

  1. ATiA presentation – Can you share your ideas for capacity building among families, staff and administration?
  2. What is data logging and how do you use it to guide AAC therapy?
  3. You’re using the TELL ME curriculum in your district. Can you share about how it’s been going? 
  4. You share a lot of unique AAC ideas. Can you talk about your favorites? (e.g. iron on manual communication boards, squishy books)
