PowerPoint Automaticity Activity

I changed the Automaticity PowerPoint to show pictures instead of words. My preschool students are not yet reading many words, so I felt that showing simple nouns (animals and foods) would get a clear understanding of their automaticity skills with identifying symbols. I pasted illustrations and photographs into the existing slides and played them for four students.

Here are my notes:
 
Student AS 4 years old Hard-of-Hearing--Communicates with sign and speech
Missed  but knew the concepts of bread, egg, hamburger, strawberry didn’t know sign but speech was somewhat approximate

Student BL 5 years old  Profoundly Deaf -- Communicates with ASL
 Missed  strawberry, hamburger-- said sandwich, bread-- said sandwich

Student ES 5 years old Visually Impaired (ROP) -- ESOL student communicates with English speech
Pig- said sheep
Bread illustration – said bowl
Strawberry basket—didn’t see it
Hamburger said sandwich

Student: LK 5 years old Severe-Profoundly Deaf-- Communicates with ASL
Hen- said Rooster
Bread- said sandwich
Orange- said peach

This link shows how I adapted the PowerPoint presentation to preschoolers who are not yet reading.
