Basic Core Word "LIKE" Training

In this Lesson, your classroom team (students AND instructors!) are learning how to communicate the word "LIKE," using their communication system (AAC). You are also practicing the AAC Partner Strategy of Expectant Pausing. Expectant pause is a partner modeling a word in a situation when it's appropriate for the student. Wait or "pause" after you model to see if the student repeats the word. DO NOT assume a student wants to say something. If they do not repeat, it may not be something he/she wants to say.
