Speech Language Pathologist, Cameron Dorman, @WTWoodsonHS did an amazing job making language accessible for all the students at the Woodson Day Prom. Cameron strategically placed AAC visuals for a variety of on topic words and phrases throughout the space! #studentvoice #AAC

LAMP Update Vocab Builder Tip! When you add a new button in LAMP, an automatic pop-up now asks if you'd like to add that word to the Vocab Builder list. Click "Yes," exit edit mode, and your new word is ready to use! Thanks ATS Coach Christina for sharing this helpful tip! #AAC

Let’s celebrate a truly creative educator! Madison Mildenberger from Mason Crest is showing us how it’s done. Her classroom adaptations for CVI learners are so effective that they actually benefit her entire class! Bravo, Madison! @ATS_FCPS @MasonCrestES #TeacherAppreciation

This clever PS teacher gives each student a picture that matches the one on their assigned table. It’s a brilliant way to use visual supports to foster independence during the transition from morning meeting to work time. @ATS_FCPS #PreschoolTeacher #TeacherTips #VisualSupports

Check out this routine: after putting away their gear, preschoolers "sign in" by tracing their names on laminated sheets. It’s a brilliant way to build fine motor skills and letter formation right at the start of the day! #EarlyLiteracy #TeacherHacks #FineMotorSkills @ATS_FCPS

Start the day with choice! This preschool has a brilliant, accessible way for all students to choose their greeting (high-five, wave, fist bump). Simple steps for huge gains in independence! #ECE #TeacherTips #VisualAids @ATS_FCPS
