MAGIC BOX
- The ‘Hocus Pocus Magic Box’ is an activity designed to increase basic
communication skills for children with complex and multiple learning
difficulties.
- The aim of he ‘Hocus Magic Box’ is is to stimulate different senses in a very
systematic and coordinated way.
- Different objects and materials are offered to the children and every one
gets enough time to explore the objects with their different senses: taste,
vision, smell, hearing and tactile senses. No spoken language is used during
the activity, only music and sound effects.
- In every session we use the same structure. We always start and end the
activity with waving a heavy coloured table sheet on a same song. This sheet
acts as an object of reference.
Then we put the materials one by one on the table and offer them to the

SOCIAL READING
Reading is linking speech sounds to characters (sound-symbol), which are
synthesized from left to right until a word is formed (c-a-t makes cat).
Reading includes not only a technical aspect, but also a comprehensive
aspect (reading comprehension). It requires a double decoding:
• Graphical code that must be converted into a sound code (c-a-t is
pronounced /k/¨/ae/ /t/).
• A meaning that must be given to that soundcode.
Social Reading = signal-reading: an object, photo, image, icon or whole-word can be
‘read’
This requires a single decoding: giving meaning to a certain image.
The learning process that is used to teach this method is associative learning.

FORERUNNERS IN COMMUNICATION
Is an instrument to explore underlying competence for augmentative
communication, it measures perception and sense-making of non-transient
forms of communication at the levels of presentation and representation.
The target group consists primarily of individuals with autism and intellectual
disability (ID) without or with only limited verbal communication.
The ComFor is suitable for children and adults with a developmental level
between 12 and 60 months. Determination of the level of sense-making is
crucial for individualized interventions.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”

First level: sensation
In this level children can smell, feel and see. And have a comfortable feeling
of objects, smells, views and feelings they are used to.
Ex: these children will splash their hands in a glass of water.
Second level: presentation
In this level children recognize things when they are in front of them.
Ex. these children will know that they can drink from a glass filled with water.
COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
Third level: level of representation
The child can recognize objects and/or pictures and understand that they are
related to places or activities.
Ex. The child knows that a picture of a glass of water will refer to drinking.
Fourth level: meta-representation
The child sees different meanings of a picture/object
In this level the child can see the glass also as something to put a flower in.
The level of communication determines the ability of a person to understand
AAC.
The level of communication can be tested with the COMFOR (Noens e.a.)

ACTIVE LEARNING APPROACH (LILLIE NIELSEN MATERIALS)
The philosophy behind the approach of Active Learning is that, if given
opportunity to learn from his own active exploration and examination, the child
will achieve skills that become part of his personality.
The teacher’s task is to lead the child out of passivity to activity and help to
achieve motor abilities. They have to create an environment that is
appropriate for these children to learn and to develop actively and they help
the multiply disabled and visually impaired child to achieve as much
independence and autonomy as possible.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
Learning becomes possible if the child:
• is given opportunities to learn from the level to which he is developed.
• can discover, experiment, and explore with many ways of performing an
activity and thus learn the most practical way for him to perform a skill
successfully.
• has sufficient time to experiment and the opportunity to repeat an action as
many times as necessary in order to store the information gained and to
confirm that a specific way of acting gives the same result, and so
comprehend the reality of it.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
• has the opportunity to compare his experiences. This allows him to discover
similarities and differences, to recognize specific experiences, to associate a
new experience with others already stored in the memory, to link experiences
with each other, and later on to categorize and generalize experiences.
• has somebody with whom to share his interest and experiences. This allows
him to learn how to initiate interaction.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
Infants and children learn within several areas of development
simultaneously. Ability achieved in one area influence abilities in other areas,
so that the areas are intertwined and experienced by the infant or child as a
small entirety. Through self-activity and interaction with others, this entirety
should gradually contain more and more detail as the child comprehends and
masters the several parts, becomes able to connect these parts, and finally is
able to perceive a bigger entirety.
In summary, learning is achieving knowledge by being active.

APPLIED BEHAVIOUR ANALYSIS (ABA)
Behaviour Analysis is the scientific approach to studying the behaviour of
organisms. It uses scientific methods to look at the individual organism. Its
main objective is to discover principles and laws that govern behaviour.
Behaviour Analyses has 2 branches experimental and applied behaviour
analysis.
ABA which is both an applied science that develops methods of changing
behaviour and a profession that provides services to meet diverse
behavioural needs.
COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”

PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES OF ABA
Discrete trial training is an educational strategy based on the principles of
ABA. It involves breaking down the skills into smaller components and
teaching those smaller sub skills individually. Repeated practice of skills is
conducted and teachers may incorporate prompting procedures as
necessary. Correct responses are followed by reinforcement procedures to
facilitate the learning process.
COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”

Reinforcement: is a process in which a consequence of a child's behavior is
"rewarding" enough so that the child begins to engage in the behavior more
frequently.
Prompting: When teaching an individual with a disability, you often need to
deliver specific prompts to elicit a response. Prompts make learning more
positive and increase the efficiency of instruction by minimizing student error.
Prompt fading and Prompt Hierarchy : When we begin teaching a new skill
we may begin by giving a full prompt and slowly slowly we remove prompts so
that the child begins to act independently.
Error correction procedures: If an incorrect response is given, typically it is
correct with a simple, neutral "No“, and the trial is often repeated to give
another chance. If a number of incorrect responses are done, the level of
prompting may need to be increased.

COMENIUS PROJECT

Take data: Data collection helps ABA therapists accurately measure
performance throughout the teaching process. Not only does it provide them
with a deeper understanding of how the child progresses, but it enables them
to monitor any setbacks or to identify any changes in environment or stimuli
that led to different responses. It also helps parents and educators come up
with behavior plans and to make adjustments to the curriculum as needed.

USE OF INERACTIVE BOARD FOR TELLING A FAIRY TALE
IWB (Interactive White Board) is great for demonstrations and can make the
fairy tale more magical and interesting.
Is a multi-sensory and colorful tool which allows students to attend through
visual, auditory and tactile means bringing in much more focus all around.
Reaches a variety of learning styles by keeping the students engaged and
motivated. Student with limited motor skills can enjoy. Special needs students
can manipulate the IWB with more ease than a traditional computer/mouse
set up.
IWB gives teachers’ the opportunity to adapt material for handicapped
students. The large fonts and bright colors are helpful for both visually
impaired students and those who have trouble staying on task, while students
who respond well to kinesthetic learning will benefit from touching the board.

MUSIC THERAPY - THE USE OF MUSIC AS A NON- VERBAL
COMMUNICATION
How we define communication?
Communication is the transmission of information with a medium from one
person to the other.......
How we define Music?
Music is any element that can be perceived through hearing, but also with
other senses such as touch, through vibration.
Clinical improvisation in creative Music Therapy
The use of music as a nonverbal communication in music therapy is called
clinical improvisation.... Is the process where the client and the therapist
relate to each
other through music.
LISTEN.... LISTEN.... LISTEN......
By listening to the clients’ music, it can provide the Music Therapist a point of
where to begin or bring the music improvisation.

MAKE CHOICES
The main focus in our work is to give the students possibilities to have an
influence on the daily life at school and the wider community. To reach this
goal it Is important to give the students communication-systems which are
adapted to each students level, physically and mentally.
Different reasons do that most of the students need AAC, for supply for
spoken language, or they use AAC as main communication.
We have developed communication-systems for each student, who give them
possibilities to influence on their life at school, home or other arenas in their
life.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
MAKE CHOICES
Here are some examples:
Possibilities to choose which music they want to listen to. On the wall we have
different pictures who symbolize different kinds of music. The student take a
picture from the wall, and put it on the cd-player. Then, the teacher helps the
student to find this cd.
The meaning of every picture is especially exercised, before they start to use
them in natural environments, so we are sure they understand what each
picture is symbolizing.

With this book the student can communicate with people about all stages of
their daily routine.
We are also using communication-sheets, they functioning is similar to
communication skills,however, they are theme based.
(example: meals)
When the student starts using pictures as a communication aid, we start with
communication sheets, then the sheets are put together to form a
communication book.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
COMMUNICATION
Diary with photos
To give the students the opportunity to tell their families or others about the
day at school, some of them bring pictures or a diary with pictures with them
to their homes. This method creates opportunities for the students to tell their
family members about what happened at school today.
This diaries/pictures give them opportunities to communicate with different
people (example: at school, the daycare-centre, and other people they meet).

COMMUNICATION
Day and week schedule
Mobile day-schedule is a very useful tool for several students. They always
have the possibility to get a reminder of what will happen, even if they aren`t
at the classroom. A mobile schedule help them to have a focus on the activity
they are going to do. It is especially useful when the students move from one
room to another throughout their daily routine.

INCLUSIVE EDUCATION
Broadwaters is an inclusive campus shared by a mainstream school called
‘The Willow’ and one special needs school called ‘The Brook’.
On the campus, pupils with special educational needs share some of the
activities with their peers from the mainstream school. For example, during
activities of the artistic field pupils from both schools work together in a same
classroom sharing an inclusive lesson. Mainstream students from The Willow
and students with special education needs from The Brook benefit from the
experience of inclusive learning developing a wide variety of skills ranging
from PSHE ( Personal Social and Health eduction), Humanities, Creative
skills (Art&Music).
Students from both schools share common spaces: dining room, play
ground...

SHERBORNE DEVELOPMENTAL MOVEMENT
Sherborne Developmental Movement (SDM) is a form of therapeutic
intervention, which seeks to engage participants in interactive learning,
through shared movement experiences, which have their origins in the normal
patterns of human development. These movement experiences are presented
in an environment that is open to personal response, non- judgemental and
firmly rooted within the concept of achievement and success.

MUSIC POLICY
Music is a powerful, unique form of communication that can change the way
people feel, think and act. It brings together intellect and feeling and enables
personal expression, reflection and emotional development.
As an integral part of culture, past and present, it helps people understand
themselves and relate to others, forging important links between the home,
school and the wider world.
It can develop a sense of group identity and togetherness, and increases
self-discipline and creativity, aesthetic sensitivity and fulfillment.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
MUSIC POLICY
Music is taught both as a discrete subject, and in a cross curricular way. In
order for pupils to learn through their most effective means, and to work to
their strengths and abilities, a multi-sensory approach to teaching and
learning is often used in music activities.
All classes throughout the school use music activities to support other areas
of the curriculum – live and recorded. Music is also used as a ‘sound of
reference’ or auditory cue throughout the school day – to encourage
recognition, awareness, participation, anticipation.
Key skills are taught through music : choice making; gross and fine motor
skills; communication; anticipation; social interactions; turn taking; developing
receptive and expressive communication; responding to instructions…..

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
MUSIC POLICY
Aims:
· To offer all pupils a broad and balanced music curriculum appropriate to
their age, ability, need
· To offer pupils of differing abilities, and whose experiences are wide
ranging, the opportunity to develop at their individual level and stage of
development
· To provide access to musical knowledge, skills and understanding through
the teaching of music as a discrete subject or within a cross curricular
approach.
· To access the music curriculum in an inclusive context

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
MUSIC POLICY
Approaches to teaching
The contribution of music to the whole curriculum is recognized by
developing in pupils the following essentially transferable skills and attributes:
· Delight in a sense of individual and collective achievement
· Communication skills – verbal and non-verbal
· Aesthetic appreciation and discrimination
· Listening skills and sensitivity to sounds
· Imagination and inventiveness
· Intellectual and artistic skills
· The ability to analyse and solve problems
· Social skills e.g cooperation, turn taking, self- esteem, perseverance
· Study skills e.g lengthened attention span, memorizing...
· Self-motivation, self-discipline, self-evaluation
· Access to, awareness, appreciation of a wide range of cultural traditions.

MOURNING AND GOODBYE CIRCLE
COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
We perform these activities every day with those who face severe and
profound learning difficulties, and have motor impairment and the lack of
communication and autonomy too in our school.
In the Morning and Goodbye Circle children are encouraged to
communicate in a variety of ways including vocalizing, facial expression,
giving eye-contact, eye-pointing...

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
With these activities we want our children to achieve the following aims:
•To listen and respond, to focus visual/aural attention
•To sustain attention and respond with relevant verbal/non-verbal
"comments"
•To initiate communication and interaction with others
•To listen with enjoyment to stories, songs, rhymes and poems
•To perform simple actions on request within a familiar context
•To track a range of visually/aurally attractive

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
These activities includes the following structure and sub-activities:
•Register-time: responding to "who's here today?" and having their name
called. Listening to and showing an awareness of/interest in others.
•"Hello Song": greeting teacher, staff and peers, also saying hello in home
language.
•Responding to "how are you today?".
•News from home: looking at home-school books and sharing news.
•Songs that focus on names.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
During the Goodbye circle we focus on the following activities:
Reflecting on the activities of the day (daily) and how the children have been
learning (reading the home school diaries). Children have the opportunity to
communicate how they are feeling at the moment using their preferred
means of communication. Favourite action songs and rhymes are
performed as well as Goodby song.

SKILLS

CAUSE AND EFFECT TO COMMUNICATION
To develop their ICT skills , our students need to develop their understanding
of cause and effect activities.
Developing cause and effect skills, means that we are helping a child to
understand that they are able to extend the level of influence they have
towards events in their immediate environment.For example that and action
on their part can cause a response, either from other people or from objects
around them.
Switches give our students a cognitively less challenging way of interacting
with ICT equipment, for example simply pressing the switch makes something
happen. Because of this, switches are an ideal way to experience cause and
effect.
COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
It is important to focus on the level of attention a student has on the ‘effect’
itself. In other words on the consequence that his action has. The student
can press the switch to initiate an action rather than concentrating on the
switch itself.
It is advisable not to talk about pressing the switch but to encourage the
students to look at the effect they have created in other words at the effect
triggered by pressing the switch.
It’s important to give the learners lots of opportunities to practice using the
switch throughout the day.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
We can do different activities at different levels such as:
1.- Press and Let Go: time rewarded activities
2.- Press and Hold: toys, electrical appliances
3.- Press it Again: switch building, slideshow maker, toys with a toy controller
device
4.- Turn On and Off: MP3 Player, toys, electrical appliances

COMENIUS PROJECT

5.- Play with two switches: Start a Stop a device and Chose activities with
these two switches.
6.- Switch Timing activities: Learning to wait until pressing the switch to trigger
the reward.
7.- Two switches, two actions: each switch has a role to play in the activity, for
example one switch to turn on a radio and the other one to turn it off.
8.- Formal scanning activities: a box moved through a series of choices where
the learner has to press the switch when the desired object is highlighted.
9.- Independent Choosing

AUDITORY SCANNING
Auditory scanning is a strategy designed to give students choices orally. It is
often useful for students with severe visual and motor impairments that find it
more difficult to directly access tangible symbols, pictures, or a voice output
communication device.
Auditory scanning is also a useful strategy for students that work with more
complex systems, such as picture boards or voice output devices, for a
variety of reasons; (e.g., forgot to bring it, breaks down, is not available...) .
The basic idea of auditory scanning involves verbally providing the students
with a list of messages; then repeating them, and waiting for the student to
indicate a choice from among these messages.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
AUDITORY SCANNING
There are a variety of methods that the person can use to indicate a choice. It
can be as simple as making a sound or a gesture. It can also be more refined
like using a switch.
Using this technique, the person can communicate by spelling and creating
new messages.
Different ways of presenting auditory scanning can include live voice or aided
scanning.
Using this technique items are listed, usually linearly, and the person signals
when they have heard the item that they would like to select. The scanning
stops and the communication partner must remember the last item listed
because this is the choice that has been made.

COMENIUS PROJECT
“Hear my Voice”
AUDITORY SCANNING
This should be and example of auditory scanning structure:
Menu1: Activity, People, Places, Feelings
Your student might choose “feelings”. You would then provide your student
with the next appropriate sub-menu from which he/she can select:
Menu2: Happy, Mad, Frustrated, Scared
