Supporting AAC Users in a Special Ed Classroom

An augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) device, is a tablet, board, or laptop that helps someone with a speech or language impairment to communicate. In special education classrooms, AAC devices are often present as learners may be nonspeaking or nonverbal. In this video, Jen shares how she incorporates AAC into her instruction to support learners who use these devices, while also making learning differentiated to support the diverse needs of her special ed students. She shows how she uses Touch Chat and Core Boards to make activities accessible for all of her learners. Discover how Jen uses AAC while reading a book about taking turns aloud to her class.
