Hello!

I hope we can come up with some lessons to get all PRC device users active and using those devices!

PASS/Write With Icons

One of the first things you need to learn to use when making support materials is how to use the Write with Icons feature on the PASS. The instructions for doing so can be found at the PRC Product Support pages at http://support.prentrom.com/article.php?id=666

You can type spelling lists in here, a whole book you want to translate into Minspeak, certain phrase sequences, etc. etc. You can make cheat sheets for therapists, aides, or teachers to use, instead of teaching them how to use Minspeak.

The best part is, once you download your specific user area into the PASS, the Write with Icons (WwI) will take on your colors and your sequences, so it matches your device exactly.


Adapted Lessons for AAC

What I am attempting to do is to try to explain how to adapt given materials, so you can include your AAC devices. The materials I am using for these lessons can be found at the FREE summer unit over at Unique Learning Systems. They cover k-12 in their lesson plans, but I will be using the Elementary Level for my adaptations, and you can adapt any level using the same ideas.

Here is where you can sign up for the free lessons.

Lesson 2: More Pronouns

Did you practice saying each pronoun? The 7 pronouns are I, you, he, she, it, we, and they. The pattern is PRONOUN+PRONOUN. If you did, your Minspeak vocabulary is 7words already!

Can you say the objective form of each pronoun? The 7 objective pronouns are me, you, it, him, her, us, and them. The pattern is PRONOUN+OBJECT. If you cheat a bit, since two of the words are the same as above, you now know how to find 14 words using Minspeak!

Did you practice saying the possessive pronouns? The 7 possessive pronouns are my, your, its, his, her, our, and their. The pattern is PRONOUN+POSSESSIVE. Again, one of these is the same as above, but you now know how to say 21 words using Minspeak.

WOW, and you thought this was hard.

Now, time for more Pronouns!
