We use the methodology Spelling to Communicate (S2C) while supporting other similar methods, to teach/coach individuals with motor challenges the purposeful motor skills necessary to point to letters to spell as an alternative means of communication.  The goal is to achieve synchrony between cognition and motor leading to purposeful communication.  

Skilled and rigorously trained communication partners teach purposeful motor skills using a hierarchy of verbal and gestural prompts. Teaching, coaching  and motor practice centers around engaging cognitive lessons.  Once students have achieved the motor skills for autonomous communication, the focus expands to develop whole body purposeful movement for daily living 

and achieving personal goals.

Spelling to Communicate is a methodology certified by the International Association for Spelling as Communication (I-ASC).  

Other methodologies supported by OLBC, 

include Rapid Prompting Method (RPM) and Spellers Method.
