TECHNOLOGY AND SOCIAL SKILLS?

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE HERE?

WHICH CHILD IS BEING MORE SOCIAL?

EACH TOOL ( BOOK, IPAD, TOYS) SERVES A DIFFERENT PURPOSE - IMPROVING SOCIAL SKILLS IS NOT A PRIMARY GOAL OF THESE DEVICES.

TECHNOLOGY AND SOCIAL SKILLS?

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE HERE?

ADULTS MAY OR MAY NOT ACT AS FACILITATORS WHEN CHILDREN ARE USING TOOLS IN ORDER TO TEACH OR

PROMOTE A SKILL

THE FUTURE IS HERE - LET’S STOP RESISTING IT!“WE ARE 13 YEARS INTO THE 21ST CENTURY. ACCESS TO TECHNOLOGY IS NOT A LUXURY; IT’S A BASIC NECESSITY… BECAUSE MANY STUDENTS DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO TECHNOLOGY AT HOME, SCHOOLS HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO HELP THEM GET ACCESS TO THE KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS THEY NEED TO BE ON THE SAME FOOTING AS THOSE STUDENTS WHO DO.” GREATSCHOOLS.COM

Describing a student’s phonological awareness skills can make it easier for educators and clinicians to target early reading difficulties (Catts, 1993; National

Institute of Child Health and Human Development, 2000; Stanovich, 2000), writing skills (Clarke-Klein & Hodson, 1995), and speech and language skills

(Carroll & Snowling, 2004; Gillon, 2000, 2002, 2005).


COMMON CORE EARLY LANGUAGE SCREENER

‣ USING CCSS TO IDENTIFY WEAKNESSES IN EARLY LANGUAGE SKILLS IS CRITICAL FOR ENSURING ACADEMIC SUCCESS.

‣ CCELS IS BASED ON CCSS AND INCLUDES A NARRATIVE REPORT.

‣ PRE-K, KINDER & FIRST GRADE LEVELS

‣ STIMULATE INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP DISCUSSION OF OCCURRENCES AND NARRATIVES RELATED TO STUDENTS’ OWN LIFE OR SIMILAR CONTEXTS, WHICH IN TURN ALLOWS THEM TO PRACTICE SOCIAL SKILLS AND LANGUAGE.

The app is based on story-based intervention, a technique found to be effective for children with autism as documented in the National Autism Center’s Evidence-Based Practice and Autism in the Schools (2011)*

▸ ANGRY BIRDS GLOSSARY: HTTP://WWW.ANGRYBIRDSNEST.COM/ABOUT/GLOSSARY/


“GAMIFICATION” OF SPEECH THERAPY1.SEQUENCING: THE STUDENT WILL VERBALLY PLAN THE STEPS NEEDED TO ACHIEVE THE GOAL PRIOR TO ACTING OUT THE PLAN. AS EACH LEVEL GETS HARDER AND MORE COMPLEX, THE STUDENT’S SEQUENCING AND PLANNING SKILLS WILL INCREASE IN COMPLEXITY. 2.PREDICTING : THE THERAPIST WILL DISCUSS POSSIBLE SCENARIOS AND ASK THE STUDENT: “WHAT DO YOU THINK WOULD HAPPEN IF WE DUG THE MUD ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT?” 3.FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS : THE SLP WILL GIVE DIRECTIONS TO THE STUDENT WITH INCREASING LEVEL OF COMPLEXITY: EXAMPLE: “ FIRST DIG TO REACH THE FIRST DUCK, THEN SKIP THE SECOND DUCK AND MAKE THE WATER ACCUMULATE BEFORE IT REACHES THE CROCODILE”. 4.STORY RE-TELLING : THE SLP AND STUDENT WILL TAKE TURNS COMPLETING THE LEVELS AND STUDENT MUST RE-TELL HOW EACH PERSON ACHIEVED THE TARGET.
