2 About the Handout Ø Goals for users of AAC devices Ø Reasons AAC users don t use their devices Ø Communica>on partners behaviors that do not facilitate communica>on by AAC users It s all about the vocabulary!!!!! Everyone needs a good analogy Strengthening the core stability muscles There are main 3 stages to a^aining a strong core. Stage 1: Independent core contrac>on Stage 2: Integrated focused core exercises Stage 3: Incorporate into func>onal ac>vi>es Research and implementa>on results have shown that core vocabulary should be an integral part of teaching communica>on skills. h^p://praac>calaac.org/strategy/teaching- core- vocabulary/ Types of Vocabulary Core & Fringe Core vocabulary - composed of high frequency words that are very versa>le ü Developmentally, environmentally and pragma>cally appropriate. (gender, age, topic, sebngs, disabili>es) Fringe vocabulary - composed of words that occur infrequently and lack versa>lity ü Primarily nouns and custom vocabulary. All Words are NOT Created Equal hibernate who up is have Paul Revere about do Mars a help cylinder stop want am market down Beth Saunders, MS CCC/SLP/ATP 2
3 Core vs. Fringe hibernate who up is have Paul Revere about do Mars a help cylinder stop want am market down Genera<ve Language is Based on Core Words Ø 85-90% of what we say throughout the day comes from a small bank of core words. Ø 20% of what we say comes from thousands of fringe words.

Ø Nouns are picture producers. Ø Most standardized tests focus on nouns easier to test, both recep>vely and expressively. Ø Need to take a look at tes>ng- open ended ques>ons. More important to find out understanding of topic than able to recite names. Ø We rarely need to focus on core vocabulary with VERBAL kiddos this is open done naturally by parents. Common Core Standards Ø Core Curriculum Standards emphasize the ability to answer open- ended ques>ons. Ø Common Core Curriculum Standards require students to describe, explain, compare/contrast, ask/answer, determine the meaning, make connec>ons and analyze, etc. Ø The Common Core Standard does not specify being able to say par>cular words. Ø It demands students be able to tell about and talk about curriculum content meaningfully. How do I teach core vocabulary? Back to Basics - Strategies for Language Development Focus on Language - Sebng Language Goals - Brown s stages Language Lab The Medium Ma^ers - Appealing ac>vi>es Beth Saunders, MS CCC/SLP/ATP 4
