May is Better Hearing and Speech Month! In preparation for the month, learners in Kindergarten at Round Hill Elementary School engaged in an experience where they explored augmentative/alternative communication. Led by speech language pathologist Amy Cote and supported by an ensemble of other educators including the early childhood special educators, the Kindergartners explored the Language Acquisition Through Motor Planning: Words for Life application. The students learned how the app was organized, explored how to find words, and discussed what it meant to be a supportive communication partner to their peers who are using the application to help them learn language.
