OPTION 1: DEVICE SCREENSHOTS
If you already have a high-tech AAC device, this is a great way to access lite-tech AAC. You simply take a screenshot of the home page and print it. The idea is that the home page of a high-tech language system includes mostly core words, making it easy to communicate a variety of different communication functions. This also supports learning the motor plan for your current language system.
