project

Stories and communication

Aims
• To encourage and stimulate communication
• To share good practice and exchange information / ideas and methods for improving communication for our SEN students (including ICT and Communication Aids)
• To increase student self esteem through improved communication skills
• For staff to improve the use of foreign languages, and make students more aware of foreign languages
• For students and staff to learn about cultural diversity
• For staff and students to develop a positive attitude towards ICT, improving skills for better communication

The aims of the SAC project will be achieved through the development of stories which can be accessed by students of all abilities, from each school involved. This will start with each school making a sensory story sack about their country for each of the partners. Our stories will develop throughout the project encompassing the use of alternative communication, videos, photo stories, music and power point presentations.
