Speech-Picture Cards

Just a few of the cards
Vinny worked with today.

This morning Vinny's speech therapist Misty came over to work with Vinny.  We tried a new technique today, and started using simple picture cards for Vinny to make choices.  HE DID AWESOME!!!! As you can see, the pictures are very simple and Vinny understood them beautifully.  He made clear choices by choosing exactly what he wanted and was able to tell us if he was all done or wanted more.  We even switched the cards around when it was time to chose and he still chose the one he wanted.

I couldn't be more proud of him.  We most certainly will be working more with the picture cards to communicate better with Vinny.

Smarty pants!

I have to say, Vinny has the best therapists ever!

Yesterday his PT and Early learning teacher where at the house working with Vinny.  He did great!  His teacher told me that Vinny did so well picking matching pieces...(such as a pig head and a pig butt).  She said that Vinny completely understands what needs to be done, and it only takes one time to show him.  What a smarty!!!  Good work Vinny!
