Home News and Events Parents Stories Talking Photo Album, frames and key rings
Hello Everyone! It’s the start of term 1 and I’m sure everyone is steamrolling through their days with various appointments and wondering where the time goes. To all of the new families – welcome. You are embarking on a journey which will often be stressful but strengthened by the wonderful support of the Pathways staff. To our existing families – welcome back. I’m sure you will benefit enormously from the continuing innovations initiated by all at Pathways.
For those families who know my family, I’m happy to report that Claude & Rhys started school and they continue to want to go back! We are in the process of establishing their communication needs and working with teaching staff so that everyone is “talking” together.
One great assistive tool has been the TALKING PHOTO ALBUM. We are using ours to participate in the class “daily news” and all of the children are enjoying looking at the photos together – it’s a lovely way to share experiences.
The album is a fantastic, low cost way to communicate and its really easy for children & adults to use. If you are interested in seeing one, please talk to Pathways ECI as they keep a small stock of them for sale at the reasonable price of $45 each. Pathways ECI also stocks other simple talking photo frames and key rings that can be used in the same way.
Happy journey for the term ahead.
Chrissie
