I created this neuroaffirming resource to explain and validate different forms of communication, as well as different communication preferences, challenges, and accommodations. 
 
This digital resource (PDF) contains:
 
18 illustrated pages (square images on A4) introducing and explaining different forms of communication (AAC) in an affirming, empowering way (using kid-friendly language)
 
A printable worksheet (black and white, A4) for individuals to reflect on their own communication preferences (primary-friendly)
 
A printable questionnaire (tick boxes) for individuals to reflect on specific classroom practices that make school feel difficult (for upper primary and teens)
 
A printable questionnaire (tick boxes) for individuals to select accommodations that they would like to see/try in their classroom (for upper primary and teens)
 
2 pages containing discussion questions and activities suitable for classrooms
