The need to bridge the gap between communica on skills and academic material for children

with profound disabili es drove our goal to create effec ve interven on units that can address the

unique needs of several students in the same session. We needed interven on plans that not only

contained content consistent with the school-based curriculum, but that could be easily modified,
both physically and linguis cally. This was the catapult for the development of our communica on

units for children with profound disabili es.

We have created this book to share our experiences with you. We constructed and field

tested a series of curriculum-based sessions that introduce age-appropriate concepts and

modifica ons for a wide range of disabili es. Our theme-based units make it easy for speech-

language pathologists and teachers to incorporate the requirements outlined in the Texas Essen al

Knowledge and Skills and the Common Core Standards curriculum with appropriate modifica ons for
all students. These units were created, tested, changed, edited, added to and honed by our team of

speech-language pathologists. Now, we want to share them with you.

Enjoy and watch your students’ communica on skills grow!
