		<description><![CDATA[Emergency Visual Cards for Children having Autism/Communication Difficulties The emergency visual cards are helpful in teaching children with communication difficulties how to communicate during an emergency. These images can be made into laminated cards which can be used by Firefighters, Police and/or Paramedics to help anyone with communication difficulties during an emergency. These cards can help people of all ages who have difficulty communicating: eg. speech delays, Autism, Down`s Syndrome, Angelman`s Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, Aquired Brain Injury, Strokes, Parkinson`s, Alzheimer&#8217;s, Dementia, etc. The Emergency Visual Communication Cards can be laminated with Vecro attached and stored in a binder or mini-binder. These laminated cards can be put on a key chain / carabineer which can attach to a belt loop for easy portability. -by Marion (Ontario, Canada)  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[VISUAL ALPHABET TEACHING FOR CHILDREN WITH COMMUNICATION DIFFICULTIES  Teaching the Alphabet to children with communication difficulties through visuals can be a fun for the child. Some children have fine motor coordination problems so the visuals are made in a couple of different ways. Method #1: Each alphabet letter is cut and laminated separately and Velcro is added to the back.  These are stored on a velcro base. A velcro workboard is used when teaching. The teacher / therapist / parent  would place the first 3 letter cards on the bottom velcro strip of the workboard, then move the &#8220;A&#8221; card onto the top velcro strip.  She/he would then point and say &#8220;A&#8221; then &#8220;AB&#8221; &#8211; which one is missing? The child can be taught to move up the &#8220;B&#8221; card.  Hand-over-hand, pointing, etc. may be used to cue the child. This method can be used to learn the whole alphabet.   Of course the teacher / therapist / parent would use lots of positive reinforcements (eg. &#8220;high 5s&#8221;).  At the end of each line they could get the child to point to each letter, sing the alphabet song, etc. Eventually the child can be taught to match upper &#38; lower case letters. Later the alphabet letter cards can be used for spelling and can be used in the described method above along with matching pictures of people (such as family members), pets, items, activities, etc. Method #2: Each alphabet would be printed out and laminated. The &#8220;b &#38; w&#8221; alphabet can be used with washable ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Among the meager benefits of the, &#8220;No Child Left Behind&#8221; legislation has been the additional &#8220;training&#8221; that has been provided for practicing classroom teachers and school administrators. Additional training for classroom teachers has, deservedly, received a lot of attention because of the improved learning that it is likely to enable teachers, to facilitate for their students. Additional training for school administrators ( school principals and school superintendents and school teachers ) should also receive a lot of attention because of the improved effectiveness, with which it is likely to enable them, to operate their schools and school systems. Reportedly, some school administrators have been somewhat resistant to, and/or resentful of, mandates that they be provided with additional training. It is understandable how some, veteran, school administrators might consider that their ages, years of experience, accumulated knowledge and authority make them needless of additional training or preparation for their jobs. Hopefully, however, these persons will realize that rapid changes in, and increased vicissitudes of, school operations make it necessary for all school personnel to get the most up-to-date preparation and training that can be provided. The need for practicing school teachers and school administrators to get continual training is, in and of itself, a monumental change that needs to be recognized and acknowledged. The need of some practicing school administrators for improved training and preparation, in some specific areas, has escaped the notice of some persons, but is painfully evident to others. One particular area of needed improvement, in the training ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mumbling voice shuffling feet averted eyes fidgeting fingers on crumpling note cards These are the common elements of a student struggling to give an oral presentation in front of a class of their peers. As oral presentations and public speaking continues to be an important part of the curriculum at all levels, finding a way to ensure students are capable of confidently delivering information in front of audiences is paramount to academic success. Both teachers and students can follow a few guidelines in preparing to deliver oral presentations. 1. Start Simple. On the first day of class, have students stand and introduce themselves to the rest of the class, including something they think is interesting about themselves. This encourages oral communication from the very start, and establishes speaking in public as an expectation of the curriculum. Continue the culture of oral presentation by consistently asking students to stand and face the class when answering simple checking for understanding questions. As the curriculum becomes more interactive and the students feel more relaxed about speaking aloud to the group, teachers can expand upon opportunities for presentation. If two students disagree about a story element, for example, have them stand up before the class and present their sides of the argument in an impromptu debate. By making simple, short and unrehearsed presentations a natural part of the curriculum, students will become more comfortable with the idea of speaking in front of a group. 2. Audience Rules. Establish strict guidelines for the audience from ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why is it important to teach teamwork to students and how can it be done? With the increasing use of social networking, instant messaging and online communication students are becoming connected to more and more people. I do feel positive about the increase of this type of communication and the growth of the internet as a learning tool. However, students seem to be interacting face to face with their peers less often, and some key communication and teamwork skill are being left behind and not taught effectively. Despite the growth of online communication, direct communication will always be important and necessary. Those people with these communication skills will be at an advantage as opposed to those who can’t quite get along with their peers. There are many group work tasks you can give to teach teamwork to students and allow them to practice their positive and productive communication with each other. There are projects students can work on in teams, jobs students can complete together and a huge range of games students can play that involve productive teamwork skills to be successful. To teach teamwork to students however you also need to highlight to them the importance of teamwork and also what skills they will need to communicate effectively and work well in a team. Here are some vital skills you can highlight and discuss with your students. Listening: The most important is that students need to listen, first of all so that other students can speak without being interrupted ...]]></description>
