Description

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) supports different communication styles by providing additional ways to express ideas, preferences, emotions, and needs. AAC may include visuals, symbols, gestures, communication boards, or technology-based tools. Communication looks different for everyone and AAC helps to create more opportunities for connection, participation, and self-expression.

Features

LAMP Words for Life® has thousands of words to support robust communication. It allows the individual to put words together to say whatever they want to say, use verb and adjective forms, and add word endings to use language the same as verbal speakers. Having a robust communication system even if the individual is an emergent communicator, allows for words to be learned the way they will always be said on the device. It provides a pathway for unlimited growth with no change and relearning along the way. There are features in the app to simplify learning while maintaining consistency.

How to Access

This app is specific to Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) and is recommended based on individual student needs.

Please contact your school Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) for more information and to explore whether this would be an appropriate support for your student.
