This video shows how to create an individualized communications system based on the abilities and needs of the child. It illustrates seven basic communication procedures that involve the use of Touch Cues (signals made by touching the child) and Object Cues (signals made by presenting an object to the child). It stresses using verbal communication and sign language when possible and encouraging children to use whatever residual hearing and/or sight they may have. The many scenes of staff and parents working with young children and infants are enhanced by a well-scripted narration. |
