Overview of the Communication Matrix & Community of Practice

Description

Do you have questions like this about a child or student you know: How can I rate this child’s communication level and skills in a meaningful, positive way? How can I help parents teach their children who do not speak or sign to make choices? How do we increase expressive communication skills? Where do we start? Come to this free webinar and Kelly Fonner will show you a FREE TOOL that can help! The Communication Matrix is a free online assessment for expressive communication for infants, toddlers, children & even adults measuring skills from birth to 24 months expressively. There is also an online community of practice support group for searching communication strategies and tools and to ask questions of the larger Matrix community. During this webinar, Kelly, who has been using the communication matrix for over 15 years, will share information about getting started, tips for completing the assessment, the data you will get and how to get assistance to support the outcomes. In order to have a "hands on" experience, it will be very helpful for you to login and get your free account started. Please go to www.communicationmatrix.org and login.
