Food play and AAC

I was able to spend some time working with some students the other day during a food play activity.  One of my students is just beginning to use LAMP app on his iPad device. We were able to incorporate new words into the session immediately.  The activity was to expose the students to several different pasta choices.   He was able to ask for the specific pasta that he wanted by the end of the session using his app.

I loved witnessing his language expand on the spot! He was requesting rigatoni, and vermicelli by the end of the session!
