Making a PECS *notebook* for my son

[Guest guest]

What sort of pages do you think are necessary for everyday life to include. Each

tabbed divider will represent a different area.

For instance, the first tabbed divider will have a velcro sentence strip where

he can use PECS to say what he wants for food.

(I want broccoli.)

Rather than doing this as a means of communication because he is communicating

effectively, I am doing this to try and teach him more about sentence structure.

Any ideas?

Include a page for attributes - I want BLUE/YELLOW playdoh/pencil. I want BIG

cookie. I want STRIPY socks. I want ROUND/SQUARE cutter. Also maybe include page

for commenting - I see dad/ brother, car, truck etc. I like... PECs / symbol

supported sentences can be a great way to build vocab / extend sentence

structure.

Try going to the PRENTKE-ROMICH website, www.prentrom.com, to find their

suggested words and phrases for appropriate age groups.  I continue to use their

info to help me program Drew's device & it's helpful info for any type of

augmentative communication.

That is a good idea. I could have a page for descriptives/attributes, a page for

prepositions, a page for different nouns (foods on one page, toys on one page,

places on one page). Then i just saw a video clip where the person had a

separate sentence strip that they took verbs, nouns, adjectives, etc... And

placed them on the sentence strip.

Thanks for the ideas. <3

Once on their site, I do not see what link to try to find the list of suggested

words.

Could you point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
