Tip

A Communication and Sensory Wall can be created using the devices by mounting several Partner/Pluses on a wall all within reach of students but not necessarily all clipped together.

Record interesting messages, requests, and sounds on the devices coupled with interesting tactile icons. The icons placed on the devices can be soft, rough, smelly, etc. and messages can provide language stimulation, encourage phrase building, or simply be attention getting funny sounds.

Taking advantage of the output jack, some of the Partner/Pluses can also be attached to tape recorders, lights, or switch toys to teach cause and affect concepts or just for fun.

The symbol icons can also easily be changed and the device messages reprogrammed to allow for various other activities including phono-logical awareness activities, “find the rhyming word” activities and so much more.
