AAC/DEVICE - PROMPT CARD/REMINDER FOR OTHERS.

A practical and effective visual tool to increase independence for AAC users and support them in advocating for themselves and their 'voice' when they don't have access to their device. Our non speaking learners can often experience times where their device/AAC tool is in their bag or out of reach and their teachers/carers haven't thought to retrieve it for them. In instances like this, they may not be able to communicate that they need their device and sadly, miss out on many opportunities to engage, participate and express their needs, thoughts, and ideas.

Having this simple prompt card/reminder provides learners with a way of getting someone's attention and accessing their 'voice'.

Print, laminate, and attach to their desk, wheelchair, wall, visual schedule, or lanyard/keychain- anywhere that is easily accessible for them!

2 options available- 'I need my device please' and 'I need my AAC'. 4 sizes available for each option.

Please feel free to email me if you are looking for particular sizing or visual, and I will see what I can do :-) - colourfulcommunicationtherapy@gmail.com

Please remember to place feedback and check out/follow my store for lots more wonderful resources and visual supports!

Thank you! :-)
