- Pixon Teaching Tip: Pixons can be used as teaching materials
for picturing the metaphors behind Unity® icon sequences. The word for
this week is “look”. Compare the Pixon
 to the icon sequence   . Teach the meaning of the word “look” by having the person request to “look” at hidden objects, pages in a book, etc.
- Intervention Planning: Thank you to Christina Dal Santo,
Annette O’Connor, and Malia Vigil for the Intervention Plan for teaching
the core verb “look”. Use it with an animated PowerPoint show they developed called LOOK! and a PDF book called At The Park.
- Teaching Materials Exchange: Read Apple Picking
by Debbie Witkowski to practice both asking questions and giving
answers-plus a recipe for making apple crisp. Yum! The book is coded
with Pixons and icon sequences from Unity®45, Unity®60, Unity®84, and
Unity®144.
- Unity® Teaching App: Have parents, teachers, and therapists
practice the patterns of Unity® using a new app from TapSpeak called Practicing Unity® Patterns. PUP is available through iTunes for $29.99.
