October is AAC Awareness Month!

AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) is about so much more than requesting wants and needs. It's about connecting with others, sharing thoughts, expressing opinions, and having fun!

This month, we're highlighting some of the many ways AAC can support communication beyond making requests.

From asking questions and expressing likes and dislikes to directing activities, sharing frustrations, and telling jokes, AAC gives individuals opportunities to communicate in meaningful ways throughout their day.

πŸ’™ AAC helps individuals express themselves, connect with others, and participate in everyday conversations.

Reading together is one of the easiest ways to support your child's language development. πŸ“š

Our pediatric speech-language pathologist, Hailey, shares simple book-reading strategies that encourage communication, build vocabulary, and make storytime more engaging.

Try these tips during your next reading session:
βœ… Have your child face you
βœ… Build excitement before you begin
βœ… Use an engaging, expressive voice
βœ… Make reading fun
βœ… Interact with the pages
βœ… Add sound effects
βœ… Include gestures
βœ… Use language your child understands

These simple strategies can help make storytime more interactive while supporting your child's communication and language development.

October is National Occupational Therapy Month! πŸ’š

This month, we're highlighting some of the ways occupational therapists help children develop and strengthen the skills they need for everyday life.

It may look like play, but every movement has a purpose! πŸ’ͺ

Theraputty is often used in occupational therapy to build hand strength, coordination, dexterity, and fine motor control.

These skills can support everyday tasks like opening containers, turning door handles, and completing daily activities with greater ease and independence.

October is AAC Awareness Month!

AAC, or Augmentative and Alternative Communication, supports people who communicate in ways beyond speech alone.

AAC can include gestures, facial expressions, sign language, pictures, communication boards, apps, and speech-generating devices. AAC can look different for every person, and there is no single β€œright” way to communicate.

At Achieve Therapy Centre, we support each individual in finding the communication methods that work best for them!
