AAC-Friendly Activities for Teaching Internal & External Body Parts, Interoception, and Self-Advocacy
The Body Parts Bundle is a ready-to-use resource for pediatric SLPs supporting AAC users and students with complex communication needs. It includes AAC-friendly activities targeting internal and external body parts, organized by body part, sensation, function, and action, with print and digital materials for flexible use in therapy or the classroom.
Instead of only labeling body parts, students learn to communicate meaningful messages like “My stomach hurts,” “I’m hot,” and “I need a break.” By building body awareness and interoception, this resource supports self-advocacy, emotional regulation, and functional communication.
What's included:
✔️ Activities targeting internal and external body parts
✔️ Interoception and body awareness materials
✔️ Organized by body part, function, sensation, and action
✔️ Print and digital formats
✔️ AAC-friendly speech therapy materials
This isn’t just a body parts unit.
It’s a practical tool for building independence, safety, and regulation through language.
Use this bundle online or print it off to use and get started teaching students about their body.
