Guest guest Posted April 1, 2001 Report Share Posted April 1, 2001 valerie, i bought " picture this " and it is so worth the money, which is relatively inexpensive considered to boardmaker......i like my boardmaker too though because you can get the sign language addendums for under fifty dollars....... back to the picture this cd, all the pictures are of real objects, so when making social stories or ashton's schedules, it's very easy for her to visually recognize because the objects are real in the pictures... and i don't have to purchase film, pay for developing or nothing...i just use my little sticker camera when i need a specific picture, like of her school or something... i did take pictures of all staff and classmates, and just copied and pasted them down to 1 1/2 inch symbols for her... you can also go to www.clipart.com and get tons of pictures www.disneyclipart.com for movie symbols, and www.dotolearn.com and get black and white symbols plus lots of schedule's already made,,,you can just print them out and fill in the blanks..... hope this helps... if you need a particular pic, let me know.i have a library of over 500pictures printed out in scrapbooks...lloolol >From: " Gordon Burnett " <burnett@...> >Reply- >< > >Subject: Re: PECS >Date: Sun, 1 Apr 2001 12:37:33 -0400 > >Joan & Anyone Else Who Might Know: > > I'm heavily into PECS or is it PICS?

I was going to ask this question. We already have Picture This and I am considering Boardmaker. You and Joan both know Maddie. Is Picture This something I can use for her? Currently, I lent it to her teacher (who uses boardmaker) but will get it back this week. I purchased the set of pictures from Pyramid, and I do like them. But I still need various kinds. What do you guys think? Ok, I really am leaving to go lay down now..... And take more Motrin!! Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
