Katie Goes to Walmart

Katie took her first trip to Wal-Mart using her Tango to interact. This is Katie's introduction to her Shopping Talk Topic. She's learning positive/negative commenting and social interaction messages. Katie is a little cautious when she learns new message so she likes to hold our hand as she's trying out her new words. Katie's partners do not physically guide her hand but do provide verbal cueing throughout this initial experience. Katie had a great time in her outing and went home with a funny new video!

The Tango is a speech generating device available from Dynavox at www.dynavoxtech.com.

  1. Hi, Vicki! Philip and I have enjoyed watching your videos on this blog! He kept asking for more videos, so it's a great incentive for me to use while working with him. :) Thanks! We look forward to coming back and checking out more in the future! You can visit our blog at: www.philipswriting.blogspot.com
