More often than not, the sound seems very similar to what the word or phrase might be. How can I encourage this students to participate and stay actively engaged since he seems to understand the materials being presented. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Mt first question: Does this student have a communication device with being nonverbal? Your best friend for a nonverbal student is a visual communication board, which can be made online or you can find them already done online. The visual communication board has a name and a picture of each item such as cut and paste, stop, go, next activity, etc. These can be put in front of the student to encourage communication and feedback during teaching. I personally used this so much while working with my ESE students during my second internship. I loved it, and the nonverbal students grew to use this as I was using it during each lesson speaking aloud and touching the communication board visual for each item I could! I hope this helps!                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Great idea!
