October is International AAC Awareness Month, and we are excited to celebrate it in our classrooms!
AAC stands for Augmentative and Alternative Communication! 🎉 It includes all the amazing ways someone communicates besides talking—like using high-tech iPads with speech apps, communication boards and sign language.
This month is all about breaking down barriers and raising awareness. When we understand and accommodate AAC, we create a more inclusive, accessible environment for everyone.
Here are 3 quick ways to be a great AAC partner.
1. Provide extra time: It can take longer to formulate a message on a device. Please be patient and avoid finishing sentences.
2. Speak directly to the person: Always address the AAC user directly, not their caregiver, assistant, or companion.
3. Model the messages to grow a student's independent use.
Throughout September, our Pre-K students have been learning about the importance of showing kindness and respect. We have been practicing how to use kind words, listen to others, share and take turns, help our friends, and treat everyone with care and respect.
We are so proud of the thoughtful choices our students are making each day! Thank you for helping us reinforce these important lessons at home. 💛

Pre-K's first full day was a success! We welcomed all of our Pre-K friends together, explored our classrooms, practiced new routines, and started building our classroom community! So many new friendships, smiles, and memories already! We're off to a wonderful year!
Second grade science students started the year off rocking! They are learning all about rocks, one of the most important earth materials.
