Using Core Words in AAC | AAC Modeling

Using core words in Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) is a strategy that focuses on teaching individuals with complex communication needs a set of high-frequency words that can be used to communicate a wide range of messages. Core words are often used in combination with fringe vocabulary, which includes words that are specific to a particular topic or activity. By teaching core words, individuals with AAC needs can develop a robust vocabulary that can be used in a variety of contexts.
