Visual supports are things we see that enhance organizational skills, self-regulation, expressive and receptive communication, and the ability to understand activity demands in the dynamic environments of school, home, and community. They can be objects, printed words, pictures, body language, or environmental clues. In this course, Lorraine Maida, MA, CCC-SLP, shares ideas for using printed words, pictures, and objects with your students to support their learning and participation.
Through concrete examples and lecture, Lorraine offers more than 75 ideas for incorporating objects, pictures, icons, graphic organizers, visual bridges, task checklists, transition supports, and schedules in a variety of settings to meet a variety of student needs. You'll learn how to identify visual supports for seven areas that challenge students with deficits in communication, social, self-regulation, and behavioral skills, how to adapt visual supports for varied school and home environments, and the steps to determining appropriate visual supports matched to student ability.
