What is Core Communication?
What is Core Communication?
Core communication includes providing access to and modeling use of high frequency words such as I, more, no. Using high frequency words gives more power to the communicator, allows for motor memory of word locations and can easily build over time. Core words use pronouns, verbs & adjectives - not nouns.
