Supporting Communication, Behaviour, and Participation in the Classroom through symbol-based resources

Length of presentation is 40 mins (10:50 - 11:30am)

Students with a wide variety of needs can benefit greatly from the use of symbols to help support communication, behaviour, and participation in the classroom environment. In this session, we will explore the use of symbols and resources available to create and implement activities within the classroom. Join us in learning the clinical possibilities of low-tech resources, such as Boardmaker 7, and high-tech resources, such as TD Snap to support student’s learning. We’ll dive deeper into unique features of each tool and how they can be used across various learner profiles
