© The Makaton Charity 2010 Makaton® Foundation Workshop Will using Makaton stop someone from talking? Do you have to teach the stages precisely. And why is the vocabulary presented in stages? What problems are helped by using Makaton signs and symbols? What are the main aims of using Makaton? © The Makaton Charity 2010 Makaton® Foundation Workshop

© The Makaton Charity 2010 Makaton® Foundation Workshop Do we sign every word that is spoken? How precise do the signs have to be? © The Makaton Charity 2010 Makaton® Foundation Workshop

Would you use signs with someone who mainly uses symbols to communicate? Why does everyone need to know all the signs? © The Makaton Charity 2010 Makaton® Foundation Workshop
