K&K Sign/Select To Talk 

For emerging vocalizers, provides systematic strategies to shape speech production for greater clarity. For children who are not yet vocal imitators, provides a bridge from AAC to shape vocal communication.

K&K Sign/Select to Talk  Builds communication and speech in autistic individuals and others with complex communication needs. Designed specifically for learners and their treatment teams who wish to shape vocal language or use multimodal communication to teach requesting with unaided AAC systems (gestures or signs) or with aided AAC systems (picture exchange or speech generating devices). Concurrent with AAC instruction, this approach uses Kaufman K-SLP successive word approximations to improve the functional clarity of verbal vocal production of the items and actions being requested.

Includes over 200 vocabulary cards representing everyday foods, drinks, toys, and activities that learners frequently request and find motivating. The vocabulary items were selected to meet the unique generalization and motivational needs of autistic individuals. Each target item or action is represented by an engaging photograph on a large, glossy 5″x7″ card. Photographs were selected for iconicity and to aid in transfer of skills across different language functions.

The reverse side of each card features Kaufman “word shell” successive approximations to assist in improving verbal vocal production. Also included is a description of the sign (ASL) for that target item with pictures of the hand shapes. The accompanying 50-page manual fully explains this strategy.
