skills of students with
Autism can vary from
student to student.
7. Communication and Autism
Some students may be non-verbal and need a
different way to communication such as through
pictures or written words.
Some students are verbal but they do not know how
to use their words to express themselves and they
too need a way to help them such as pictures or
written words.
8. Big Idea
Communication systems
should be utilized ALL the
time in EVERY environment.
9. Communication Systems in
the Classroom
Communication systems can be any of the following:
A picture book with several pictures organized by
categories.
A picture board that has a set group of pictures
created for a specific activity (i.e. a picture board
with food on it for snack time).
A voice output device which is a device that when the
student presses a button with a picture/word on it,
the device ‘speaks’ the label.
Single pictures or written words
Technology and AT
10. Examples of Communication
Systems
Picture Communication Book
Students use the pictures to communicate a desired
object or activity, to comment on something they may
see, to ask questions, to answer questions, or to
interact with peers.
11. Examples of Communication
Systems
A picture board that has a set group of pictures created
for a specific activity (i.e. a picture board with food on it
for snack time).
15. When to Use Communication
Systems
The student should be the one that carries
the communication system.
The student should be taught how to
independently use the communication system.
They should not be put on a shelf and
utilized only during certain times of the day
16. Big Idea
A student should always
have a way to
communicate what they
are thinking.
