Alphabet board  

This alphabet board can be used in a number of different situations, for example:

• To clarify some words that are difficult to communicate in another way.
• As the main form of communication in a conversation.

You can use it by:

• Pointing to individual letters or phrases.
• Spelling out whole words or indicating start letters/sounds of a word to help someone get nearer to the word you want to say.
• Fist pointing if pointing to individual letters is difficult: fist point to a group of letters, and then clarify which letter in that group you intended by fist pointing to one of the colours at the top or bottom of the board.

Your conversation partner could write down the letters as you go - you could indicate "x mistake" if they get a letter wrong, or writing down might not be necessary.
