Non-Verbal Students

            These students amaze me every day!   They live in a world driven by communication and have to figure out how to convey their wants and needs without using traditional methods.  When these students are given the tools to help them communicate they often run with it. 

            People who work with students with these needs learn to read them very carefully.  Certain movements may indicate that the child is distressed or needs something.  Each non-verbal child I have worked with has taught me something new.  Just because they don’t have words to express what they are thinking does not mean that they are not thinking.  These children are so bright!
