PCS Symbol Library

Picture Communication Symbols™ Expand your lessons.

We all benefit from having symbols in our everyday lives – whether traffic signs, recycle reminders or operating instructions for new appliances. Many people who struggle with language and literacy also rely on symbols to understand written and spoken information and to express themselves. Picture Communication Symbols™ (PCS) are simple drawings that represent everything from single words to full messages. In the classroom, PCS help students establish a foundation for comprehension so they can develop skills. They help educators expand lessons to meet the needs of different skill sets. The PCS Libraries and Bundles are collections of symbols that give you more options for representing key curriculum concepts, giving students more opportunities to build skills.

TASP

Test of Aided-Communication Symbol Performance Determine the needs of clients who are potential symbol users!

✓✓ Administration time is only 10 to 20 minutes!

TASP helps professionals determine students' strengths and weaknesses in using symbols to communicate so they can make better decisions about the symbols and communication systems their students need. Answer questions like "Can (s)he use more than one symbol to make a sentence?" and "Should I use nouns, verbs or adjectives?" Simple step-by-step tests require that students can point directly to symbols throughout testing. The TASP includes four main tests: 1. Symbol Size and Number: Determine the maximum number of symbols the individual can select. 2. Grammatical Encoding: Determine what symbols the individual understands, testing different verbs, nouns, adjectives and location words. 3. Categorization: Determine whether the individual can cope with and understand topical page sets, or grammatical based page sets. 4. Syntactic Performance: Determine whether the individual is able to combine symbols to produce sentences.
