over., thanks in advance. Joyce

Hi Joyce,

PECs (Picture Exchange Communication System) might be helpful but those pictures

are typically smaller than flash cards. Abilitations catalog has some

photograph cards and some with drawings. Their website is down this weekend for

maintenance so you may need to wait until Monday or Tuesday to look at it.

How old is the individual? Is he or she getting speech services?

I bought flashcards when my son was first starting to talk. They are

NOT cheap. If you have a digital camera, the time and the energy,

you can snap tons of photos yourself and have them printed out.

You can get some great flashcards and board books in your local dollar store.

PECS are an excellent way to encourage very young children to talk, and great

assistance for AS children. The dollar store is an excellent source for these

kinds of things. Great board books, only $1. Flash cards (I'm using these for

multiplication) only $1. Dollar tree has some wonderful teaching items, only $1.

each!

Try here http://www.augresources.com/

and we sometimes go to a school supply store for flash cards that

teachers use and other supplies that you just wont find at Wal-Mart or

Office Max. Check out your local phone book for any of these stores in

your area but check and see that it is opened to the public because

sometimes it is for teachers only.

I have bought various flashcards at Staples and use them with my clients, some

of whom are verbal and some are not. There's a set for identifying and adding

coins, one with 3-cards sequences called Sequence Rummy which can be used to

tell short little stories or read the ones printed on the backs. I also have a

deck with three-letter words with each letter and 1/3 of the picture per card.

They're all the same brand but are out in the car or at the office so I'll have

to check later. They have others including a make-your-own deck, these just

happen to be the ones I have.

Please look at these links below, one may be of some help.

Not sure but I think the first set may be used once you have a few

sounds developed to promote speech. These cards can be used along

with a working language program when approximation and/ or you only

have sounds that need shaping into language. I believe strongly in

encouraging " functional language " without the use of programs like

Pecs. However do believe in real pictures that the child has in there

every day environment. This model would be for the early learner to

originally use/ promote language, but note: must fade out to more

functional language. This means not be dependent on any picture

exchange program. IMO this only frustrates the child and there are

many other options that are much more effective.

If a child were not able to even get words approximations and or

sounds, then sign would first be used as the first line of

communication that will develop into functional language. If a child

has no sounds at all to work with, in this case a child would use

sign, working into a language program, hoping to develop sounds, and

or approximations, which again would be shaped into real functional

language.

I think I may have strayed from the originila Q of just looking for

flash cards to propmote speech , but hope someone may benefit from

these .

As always my best

Kaufman Speech Praxis Materials

This unique material (manual and approximately 200 stimulus picture

cards) helps

ABA/VB resources

Here is a great resource that is used to teach VB/ABA . Well worth to

print out and take a good look.

It is an instructional manual to teach the methodology. This is not

from our school but is the same type of program that we are currently

using.

http://www.mariposaschool.org/programs/TrainingManual.pdf

You can also go to this link and see supporting materials.

http://www.difflearn.com/products.asp?dept=4

http://www.difflearn.com/products.asp?dept=3

Look for the ABBLS supporting material for a non-verbal child.

(Note: stay away from the Pecs program)

Best is to go to a workshop and see it modeled. Awesome for the early

learner from 3-5 years old. But can be used for older non-verbal

children
