Help students build community awareness and functional life skills using engaging, real-world scenes of everyday places. Students begin with expressive language practice by visually scanning each scene to find the hidden dogs and label the place. The following slide shows the same image with labels. As an added bonus, students can use prepositions to describe where the dogs are within each scene. After labeling practice, the same places are targeted using receptive language tasks. Students identify the correct place when given 2 choices, then progress to 4 choices. Places Included: (23) Football stadium, ballpark, zoo, restaurant, classroom, library, concert, museum, hospital, doctor’s office, dentist’s office, veterinarian, train station, airport, ATM, post office, grocery store, gym, park, office, pool, movie theater, fire station Skills Targeted: Community skills & life skills Labeling places Receptive identification Expressive language AAC-supported communication Using prepositions to describe location Visual scanning and attention Following directions Describing real-world settings
