Free Halloween talk board and trick-or-treat visual schedule
A Halloween communication board with core words in their usual places and Halloween words around them, so a child can say more candy, all done, or look, pumpkin, and a row of whole phrases: Trick or treat!, Thank you!, I'm a ___, Too loud! and I want to go home. A trick-or-treat visual schedule comes with it: costume, knock, say trick or treat, get a treat, say thank you, walk home.

What it is
A printable AAC board for Halloween activities, for students who use pictures to communicate and for whole-class modeling at a Halloween party.
How to use it
- Point to the words as you talk (aided language modeling) before expecting the child to use it.
- Take it trick-or-treating, or tape it to the table at a class party.
- Go over the trick-or-treat schedule before you leave the house.
Three quick tips
- Model two-word phrases like more candy or go next.
- Say the word every time you point to it.
- Keep I'm done where the child can always reach it.
Questions
- Does it match a regular core board?
- Yes. SCAFLI keeps core words in the same place on every board, so the motor plan stays the same.
- Can I use it on a screen?
- Yes. SCAFLI talk boards also play on a phone or tablet, and speak each word.
- What else is in the PDF?
- How to use the board, with a tally for the adult, and a trick-or-treat visual schedule with a picture for each step.
