Andrea Patterson is a Makaton Regional Tutor, with many years of experience working with children and young adults with additional needs.
This Enhancement Workshop concentrates on improving and developing signing and symbol skills. You will learn translation skills using signs and symbols. You will also have the opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with others from a variety of settings. Come prepared for three days of fun and interactive sessions.
Lectures examine the assessment of users needs, adapting communication to suit an individual’s needs and how to develop communication skills. You will revise the signs and symbols you learned on the Foundation Workshop and learn the signs and symbols for Stages 5-8 of the Core Vocabulary. Participants must have completed the Foundation Workshop.
You will receive 6 workshop manuals, Pocket Book of Signs 2 and Pocket Book of Symbols 2. You will also be given a certificate of attendance. Please remember to keep your Enhancement Workshop certificate in case you want to attend further Makaton training.
