How I utilize PECS in my internship: I utilize PECS frequently in my internship with Autistic
and low verbal or non verbal children. PECS has given a communication solution to those that
cannot “ask” for what is wanted orally. It has also helped with vocabulary and reading
enhancement as picture association and letter association are a part of the methodology in the
therapy room.
4. Place a velcro strip on the front binder page that holds a rectangular sheet also with
another strip on top of it. Below is one that I helped create in my internship. This strip allows for
sentence building ( I want sentences) and can be pulled off and handed to you by the student.
5. The last step is to work consistently with the same binder using the PECS methodology listed
above. The child will hopefully grow out of a PECS binder because their vocabulary will have
increased.
