This will be an ongoing post where I upload the scavenger hunt AAC communication boards and other activity sheets I make. I hope you find these useful and please share if you like them. We also have a post outlining 150 sensory learning activities you may be interested in.
All the boards are fully editable and made using microsoft word. I have used word symbols to prevent copyright issues and to make sure they are usable by anyone without special software. You can fully edit the symbols. I suggest you change the “I” symbol to a picture of the child unless the board will be for generic use. For the “I” symbol I have a version with a wheelchair user and a generic person figure for each board. Likewise the you is a combination of wheelchair user and generic person. Delete as required.
I have included multiple differentiated versions of the scavenger hunts. You will likely just need one or two for your class/child. You may use a different colour system for the colourful semantics boards. It is simple to change the outline colour of each symbol frame. Following feedback that full colour borders impact gestalt processing I have tried to create a version where the boxes are delineated by coloured underlines. If you are interested in reading more about design and dual coding in education I suggest Oliver Caviglioli’s book. This could be really important particularly to autistic children. I would appreciate feedback on this

At The Beach Scavenger Hunt
Many of us enjoy a walk along a quiet beach. Use these boards to help structure your trip. These can also be used as a supporting resource for a tough tray search. If you are looking at the beach as a topic check out our Fuzzy Ocean book resources and the Blue Abyss sensory story.
