Idaho Video Fact Sheets

The Idaho Training Clearinghouse has a set of video fact sheets which explore Pre-Symbolic Communication. The video fact sheets cover assessing communication skills, asking for more, making choices and getting attention. Some of the benefits of the fact sheets are how they speak to teaching students as they work from reacting to an interaction or termination of an interaction to intentionally communicating "more" to making choice through movements, eye gaze and other forms of communication.

While the video fact sheets feature very young children with disabilities the lessons taught in them apply to working with all learners, of all ages, who are pre-symbolic or emerging symbolic communicators.
