Phonics for All - Widgit
By Candle
14-9-2018 - 21 downloads
English
Phonics for All has been developed in response to the needs of students who use AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication). The research suggests that students who rely on AAC are at a disadvantage when learning phonics but it has been shown that they can benefit from phonics instruction. Phonics for All has been developed by Marion Stanton of Communication and Learning Enterprises. The programme aims to give students who do not use speech the opportunity to learn and practice phonics. Synthetic phonics is recognised to be an effective strategy for the teaching of reading. Phonics for All provides a bridge to the benefits of synthetic phonics with built in opportunities for systematic phonics practice. We hope it will also be useful for a wider range of students.
The activities are protected but can be tried out for 30 days. After this demo period, you'll need an activation code. For purchasing information and tech support in your country, contact support@techcess.co.uk

Steps Before Step Scanning
By Linda Burkhart

English
SymbolStix
This is a collection of activities that have been designed to help individuals with severe multiple and physical challenges to develop the motor/cognitive abilities to activate first a single switch, and then 2 switches, based upon the individual’s own intent. There is no ‘timing’ aspect in any of these activities. This is because the brain needs to be able to slow down and process the motor and cognitive information to form new neurological connections.
This is the first set of activities in series that will be available for children learning to use two switch step scanning. All activities are based on the ‘Stepping Stones to Switch Access’ by Linda J. Burkhart. Some of these activities were previously available for IntelliTools Classroom Suite.
The activities are protected but can be tried out for 7 days. After this demo period, you'll need an activation code. For purchasing information and tech support in your country, click here
PLEASE NOTE: switches need to be set to send 1 and 2 instead of space and enter for these activities to work
