July 19th Boardmaker Plus Assignment

Today Terry and I continued work on our Boardmaker Plus dynamic communication boards and switch accessible book. We had finished the book on Grand Pre on Friday and were quite pleased with how it turned out! We finished our communication board today after class- we decided upon greetings, home, school anf friends as our main board. From the school section, we decided upon Math, Science, Social Studies and Language Arts. We were targetting Social Studies/Language Arts as our curriculum focus- with our Grand Pre switch adapted book, so we decided that would be our IPP/ Communication board focus as well.
I really enjoyed watchng and learnng from all the GREAT adapted materials the rest of the class presented today- interesting ideas and a wealth of information! I will never go into the dollar store with the same frame of mind again!
