Synopsis

For students who cannot rely on speech for purposeful or robust communication, the use of a letterboard or keyboard often becomes their most reliable method of expression. This lesson book is designed for such nonspeakers, minimal speakers, and unreliable speakers who are using letterboards or keyboards as a form of AAC (augmentative and alternative communication).

When first learning to type or spell on a letterboard, the motor skills required for proficiency must be practiced in the context of structured lessons. It takes time to write these lessons which can be an obstacle at first for many new spellers and their communication partners. We hope this collection of "Inspiring Women" stories not only gets you over that obstacle but also inspires you to believe in yourself just like all of these women did to overcome even more. Enjoy!
