Frequency of core vocabulary is consistent across clinical populations, activities, places, topics and demographic groups, as well as both monolingual and bilingual speakers, and children with SLI #AugComm #ISAAC2018

Hey @stijn_deckers check out the Key Word Sign Australia “Getting Started with Key Word Sign” book at the @scopeaust booth at #ISAAC2018. Interactive and core vocabulary emphasised, rather than content words, when beginning your KWS journey!

How to 'play' with the AAC in your training: Groups of 3 ppl. Give 1 core board, 1 activity board and one board full of nouns. Give them a game/activity. One person is an observer. They will discover which boards are more useful! #ISAAC2018 @VickiBostonSLP
