Speech Therapy

Jamison just had his second day of Speech Therapy. He sat on a waiting list for over a year and a half for a Speech Therapist, so I am so excited and relieved he finally has one. Today they are working on his PECS Cards (Picture Exchange Communication System) It basically is a little 1x1 card that has a picture of different things he wants to communicate like "ball, more, dog...." and when he is interested or wants something he hands us his card and we do that activity. We've been doing this system for the last year, and he seems to understand the concept of it, just not actually associate all pictures with their real meanings. I'm hoping that this continues to develop into something that will help him communicate! Wish him luck! Til next time - Shelly.
