What will be done with my students

Our nonverbal and verbal students will be able to access and utilize the PCS signs on the playgrounds at Vineyards Elementary by pointing or tapping the icons in order to communicate their wants and socialize with peers and teachers. Both speech-language pathologists will educate staff and students on how to use these signs effectively and how to facilitate functional communication so that all students can communicate together in an inclusive way. 

 

Benefits to my students

Using these PCS signs on the playground will give nonverbal and verbal students access to core word vocabulary that will promote functional communication. These signs will also give all of our students a way to interact and socialize together in order to form meaningful connections and relationships with each other. This will truly promote inclusion schoolwide for all of our students.
