Communication Book

Where do I even start?

Amazing! You have decided that you are going to give PECs a go. Ideally, you've been trying the system out with a few small exchanges at least and feel this is the right direction for you, right now.

In this section, you'll find the essential printable pages to get you going in a variety of different themes. As you progress, you might want to create your own, start using some of the other visuals, and add to it in other ways. Read on for what we believe is a basic communication book structure. For other visuals which help emotions, rewards, scheduling and so on then you can check here. Picking and choosing what aids you include is part of the advantage to creating your own system over purchasing something ready-made but expensive.

Create something that your child benefits from and that integrates into your lives really well.

The basic communication book structure.

Themes

We've created resources based on what we feel are essential components in creating your foundation communication book.
