years.

The scenarios foster problem solving and brainstorming for possible solutions for each difficult communication situation.When Life Gives You Lemons, Make Lemonade - While the theme is lemons the scenarios are common listening situations where problems may occur due to the setting, the listener or the person talking.A scaffolding strategy, I find successful when introducing self-advocacy begins with an experiential language activity of making homemade lemonade.

ut data on their best receptive language mode, then this is the tool for you. The teacher/clinician shows the student 6 pictures in a category (animals, food, etc). She names pictures in each category using different modes of communication and with/without background noise. Students show what they understand by circling or crossing off the pictures and conclusions can be drawn about a child's receptive language modality. This information can be used to justify interpreter services, the need for DHH instruction or give accommodations for difficulties with noise in a classroom.
