I believe for transition from home to school to community the system needs to be the constant variable. Not only should the SLP use it, the teacher should incoperate it in everything they do, from asking for a pencil to asking for the restroom, or choosing peers to play a game. It is crazy to make him learn more than one system. They may be simular but they are not all the same. If it is written into the IEP they are responsible for implementing it. If you pursue they will give in (or that is what I have witnessed)Veronica Leaptrotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04737407352899580721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303070114275224113.post-42032568662492156072009-09-21T18:17:21.887-07:002009-09-21T18:17:21.887-07:00Wow.
