SugarPea Products for Autism Turn every opportunity into a learning opportunity! See it - Hear it - Say it! Using visual and auditory methods to enhance and facilitate communication and comprehension. Communication consists of exchanging messages between people: expressing needs; sharing thoughts, ideas and feelings. We all know that communication involves the use of language (either written on spoken). Children with autism spectrum disorders usually have difficulty in discovering the power and pleasure of social communication and are often slower to develop language. Some children may have learning difficulties that interfere with understanding language. Temple Grandin (an American animal scientist who has autism) describes how she thinks in pictures and how words are like a second language for her (Grandin, 1995). Visual thinkers can be helped by visual support. The TEACCH approach encourages the use of visual structure to reduce stress and promote learning for people with autism by making their environment more easily understood. Since people with autism sometimes tend to also be visual learners, visual aids can help them to make sense of the world and of other people, including the process of communication. SugarPea Products for Autism would like to introduce an interactive slide show that your child with special needs can use to see pictures and hear their names pronounced in an effort to elicit communication and comprehension. Our son with Autism is a visual learner. Comprehension is much easier for him if he's able to see pictures as well as hear the names of the pictures. Using PowerPoint, I've created an interactive slide show that allows him to view the pictures on the computer screen while hearing my recorded voice pronounce the names of the pictures. This two-pronged approach helps him learn new concepts quicker and also promotes verbal imitation. I'm offering it on eBay in hopes that it may help your child or student with special needs as much as it has helped our son. This slide show is very easy to use . All you have to do is put the cd-rom in your cd-rom drive and the PowerPoint Slide Show will begin automatically. You don't even need to have PowerPoint to be able to view the show. The file is quite large (159 MB) and may take a few moments to load. Once it's loaded, you simply follow the prompts on the screen. You'll be able to click on the arrows to either move forward or backward throughout the show. Many of the pictures are animated, too! How cool is that!!! There are even visually reinforcing 'treats' at the end of each section. This is the first screen your child will see:  There are a total of thirty-one categories to choose from. The categories are: Colors Shapes Textures and Patterns Alphabet Parts of My Body People Emotions Clothing Foods Everyday Household Items Animals Nature Community Helpers Transportation My Neighborhood My World Actions Sports Opposites Prepositions Same vs. Different Numbers and Counting Money Holidays M. C. Escher Drawings Pencil Drawings Sight Reading Spelling Time Sign Language Picture Identification Tasks There are over 1100 slides in this PowerPoint Slide Show. Please take a moment to look at an outline of the pictures and concepts that are represented in this program. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Thanks for looking at my product. Best wishes to you and your loved one with special needs. The following photos are of the selections pages.     The following is simply an outline of the pictures that are represented in the slide show. There are far too many pictures to show a screen shot from each slide. I apologize if the pictures are too small to see great detail. I just wanted to show you everything that's represented in the program. You can always email me for larger pictures of a particular section.
