Frequently Asked Questions
A communication board is a visual support tool that uses pictures, symbols, or words to help children and adults express their needs, thoughts, and feelings. They are widely used in autism, SEN, and speech and language therapy to support non-verbal and minimally verbal learners. LiberiComm offers digital and printable communication boards for use at home, school, or therapy sessions.
Sentence builders are interactive activities that help children construct sentences using colour-coded categories such as "who", "what doing", "what" and "where". The approach is inspired by Colourful Semantics, a widely used speech and language therapy method that supports vocabulary development, sentence structure, and grammar for children with SEN, autism, or speech and language difficulties. LiberiComm sentence builders are available digitally and as printable resources.
Adapted books are simplified versions of stories designed to be more accessible for children with autism, SEN, or developmental delay. They use clear visuals, repeated language, and interactive elements such as symbols or matching activities to support comprehension and engagement. Adapted books are great for shared reading at home, in class, or in therapy sessions, and help build vocabulary, attention, and early literacy skills.
A visual timetable uses pictures or symbols to show the order of activities throughout a day or session. They help children with autism, SEN, or anxiety understand what's happening next, reduce uncertainty, and feel more in control of transitions. On LiberiComm, visual timetables are for personal use only — register for free and create your own visual timetable in minutes.
