Angelman Academy is so excited to be attending the Angelman Syndrome Foundation family conference this summer in Sandusky, Ohio! The conference is taking place at Kalahari resort, a massive 173,000 square foot indoor and outdoor water park. We have partnered with our friends at the Angelman Syndrome Foundation, and Angelman educational expert Kate Ahern, to bring you a very special conference resource. A water park can be an exciting and highly motivating opportunity for communication. We have created a special water park AAC topic board to help provide access to communication. Here is an advance digital copy that you can use to begin the conversation about this exciting event. Waterproof hard copies will be made available at the conference. We hope you enjoy this resource and we can’t wait to see everyone at the conference!
