It is known that not all children learn to read or talk phonetically. Many children, often Autistics, learn to read whole words by memory and gestalt phrases to enable speech.
In an attempt to create a programme that suits my gestalt language processors, alongside their AAC and pictorial symbol understanding, I have created the Core Word of the Week AAC Speech & Literacy Programme.
It is made up of repeating weekly sessions linked to one core word per week.
Suitable for developmental/cognitive ages 0-4 years.
You can purchase the core word lessons separately or as a full programme.
The sessions include;
- Opportunities to use AAC
- Makaton signing
- Selection of linked listening to songs linked to the core word
- Watch their favourite shows and films that contain each core word
- Interactive game to help consolidate understanding
- Interactive game to trace and write the core word
- Play based ideas for each core word
- Attention Autism sessions based on the core words
- Opportunities to practice in a small group
- Opportunities to practice at a table task setting
- Widgit, SymbolStix and Boardmaker versions available with in this one purchase
The core words chosen follow the Dynamic Learning Map's 40 first core words. These are the first 40 words that a typically developing child will use most. *More theory and information on this as part of the document.
The core words included in the full programme are;
-
I (me)
- want
- not (no)
- like
- help
- it
- more
- different
- who
- he/she/they
- you

In my class, this is replacing our phonics sessions. This programme can also work alongside phonics, to better enhance speech and real life use of words in the day to day.
