IEPs and AT: Communication Boards



Present Level of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance: Andy uses a variety of sounds, gestures, signs, and picture/symbols to communicate with his family. He is very social and enjoys parallel play. Andy does not communicate vocally in the classroom, but does use some gestures. At school Andy will sign, but only with prompts.
Annual Goal: Andy will increase expressive language production by using a variety of communication methods in the classroom, including sign language, gestures, communication boards, pictures, and simple voice output devices during four out of five opportunities.

In order to meet his goals Andy will use a variety of AT. He will be able to choose his communication method whether he decides to use voice output devices, communication boards, or sign language. Pictured below is a simple communication board.
