In this 2021 YouTube video, Angela Kulcsar conducts a playful instructional session with a young child named Ashton, demonstrating how to use a 5x5 core communication board to support early language and communication skills. The interaction includes prompting the child to identify colors, count objects, compare sizes (taller/shorter), request help, and engage in turn‑taking while building a tower of blocks. Angela models how to use the board’s symbols to express wants (e.g., "more blocks," "yellow," "help") and reinforces the child's responses with enthusiastic feedback, high‑fives, and encouragement. The video showcases a concrete, child‑centered approach to augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) that blends language learning with hands‑on play.
