Engages meaningfully with a
communication partner
Hold a motivating item 3 metres away from the student and place the corresponding symbol in front of the student. When the student picks the symbol up off the table, a prompter guides the student to the communication partner. Provide the least amount of support necessary for the student to place the symbol in the communication partner’s hand. The communication partner immediately provides access to the motivating item.
Makes approximations to ask questions in an appropriate context
When a student wants an unattainable item such as aball from a high shelf, interpret the student’s actions and/or vocalisations by saying, “SN is asking for the ball”. The prompter guides the student to their communication folder or other PCS storage area to select the corresponding symbol. Provide support for the student to construct the question, “Can I have the ball please?”. The prompter then guides the student to the communication partner to make the exchange and immediately allows access to the ball.
