This resource contains basic Makaton signs suitable for adult learning (this resource is not designed for children to learn from). Makaton is a language system that uses symbols, signs and speech to enable people to communicate. I would recommend anyone and everyone to learn the basic signs in this brief guide to prevent communication barriers and promote inclusion. Disclaimer: these signs have been extracted from the free resource 'The Makaton Charity ‘All About Me’ and I do not claim these are my own pictures.

This resource includes examples of how to provide evidence that you’ve met the teaching standards, and to view the matching teacher standard guidelines view my other free resource. Perfect for generating ideas for PGCE, School Direct, SCITT, or Undergraduate.

An overview of the UK teaching standards, perfect to reflect on at the front of your folder
