Wow! I remember when his Grito movie won at the #ISAAC2018 conference, here is Christian Rossa sharing his literacy journey.

And see the rest of the thread for a link to his film. #AUGCOMM #mySLTday #literacy

Really excited to be attending a new-to-me conference. Thanks @NZSTA for the award to help me attend #NZSPAconf

It seems like yesterday that I was down the rd for the wonderful #ISAAC2018

Thanks #ISAAC2018!

This is the first conference bag that I use over and over and over again

Any one want to be an awesome service manager at an innovative family run day programme for adults with intellectual disabilities?

As I prepared to share my #ISAAC2018 highlights with local SLTs (and as a promise to #ATANZ who gave me a travel grant to attend), I found this great overview of grammar instruction in context of AAC. Love Soto and @PrAACticalAAC 's work

And I think at 7:30 we all need to see my friend's Jellyfish puppet she designed using various communication supports. It ATTACHES to the back of her wheelchair. With curly eyelashes. And PINK. Totally designed by her. #ISAAC2018 9:30 room 8

If you need to see some incredible art by adults with CNN - come hear about giant Puppets and how a local artist learned to communicate to realise their vision. #isaac2018 Today 9:30 room 8 Puppets and AAC

Kiwicamp talk sharing value of camp. Great themes coming out of qualitative work. Need for explicit training for siblings (who gave up camp fun activities to opt into training sessions!!). I am going home thinking about how to do more with siblings. #isaac2018

Come check it out #tonetableAAC tomorrow morning 11:45. Tone of voice and AAC. #ISAAC2018

And de Soto’s links to L2 acquisition research feel so relevant. I know I’m relying more and more on the skills I used during my years of teaching English as an other language (and my own attempts at learning other languages) to inform and enrich my AAC interventions. #isaac2018

Loving seeing another reason why tone of voice could be important - emotional communication - as part of Na, Rodriguez Rangel, and Brandt’s talk today at #ISAAC2018

Really nice to be hearing more about the important topic of #mentalhealth. Here is a lit review that informed Eleanor Watson’s work on CCN and mental health. She gathered lived experience through qualitative research. #ISAAC2018

This is why #isaac2018 means so much to me. A room where non-AACers have to shut up, take a back seat in the back row, and just listen. Yarning circle has begun!

With a lovely adaptation of @TalkingMats using custom symbols of hands to represent what the person’s “home” felt like. And how heart breaking to hear anyone describe their place to sleep like this. We gotta help society do better. And soon! #isaac2018

What a great start to #ISAAC2018 Nicole & Jennifer Tsourlenes. Imagine if everyone had access to AAC so early that they can’t remember a time before it was in place!

At Hatch and Geist’s literacy preconference at #ISAAC2018 - talking about taking the CROWD out of the CAR for shared reading because too many people are overdoing the ‘Wh’ questions part of CROWD
