HOW CAN DIGITAL LITERACY METHODS BE INCORPORATED FOR GRADE 4 STUDENTS WHO ARE NON-VERBAL AND ARE WORKING ON PRESENTING A PROJECT TO THEIR CLASSMATES?

Implementing AAC's into the classroom

Make the device accessible

Ensure the device can be taken everywhere

Have a charger in the classroom

Using a communication device is much slower than speaking

Why do people need AAC's?

they are unable to speak and need them to communicate

A person finds it difficult to understand what is being said

What should you be aware of?

Will only be successful if you use a student-centred approach

The effectiveness of an AAC relies on the persons communication partners

AAC systems may need to be modified over time

Support for the non-verbal student

Keep talking!

indlude them in conversations

Don't act like they aren't there

Sign language

Teach other students in the class some sign language to promote inclusivity

Could teach them Oh Canada in sign language

Be patient

Using an AAC is much more challenging than verbally speaking

Teach the other students in your class about being non-verbal

Have the non-verbal student be your co-teacher for the lesson!

Communicate with their caregiver often

How to help a non-verbal student present a project to the class

Make it a team effort

offer to present WITH the student so that they feel like they are co teaching with you

Offer to present only in front of a small group of friends

Take time to practice with them

Help them find visuals to use
