AAC for Early Learners
Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Connecting Young Kids (YAACK) is a website that covers issues related to AAC and young children. Its purpose is to provide information and guidance to families, teachers, speech/language pathologists and anyone else who is involved with a child with special communication needs. It is intended to be easy to understand and practical, and to cover a wide range of topics dealing with AAC and AAC-related issues of children at various ages and stages of communication ability, and with different strengths, disabilities and learning characteristics.
AAC & Autism
Research-based guidelines for early intervention designed to maximize the language and communication development of young children with complex communication needs including those with autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy and multiple disabilities.
Introductory level webcast on "AAC and Young Children" (20 minutes) by Drager, Light, and McNaughton may be useful for introducing AAC to Early Childhood Education staff. It focuses on ways to provide communication opportunities, model the use of AAC, pause, respond to the child, and most of all having fun!
