1. Template for creating a PowerPoint for use with the Nonverbal Reading Approach Mari Beth Coleman University of Tennessee *Feel free to use this PowerPoint to create NRA PowerPoints for children. If you use this for presentation, training, or publication purposes, please retain the original credit.

2. Following, there are slides that have an example of the word, “man” and the script that you would use when recording a word for use with the Nonverbal Reading Approach. When I create PowerPoints, I use this template and then remove the gray text (script) after I have recorded my voice. The instructions for how to create PowerPoints including recorded speech are located here: http://web.utk.edu/~mbc/Cihak_NRA_PPT_directions.pdf http://web.utk.edu/~mbc/Cihak_NRA_PPT_directions.pdf
