PCS Books and Resources
The Picture Communication Symbols (PCS) were originally designed to create professional looking communication aids both quickly and inexpensively. They are now also used extensively in unlimited types of learning activities and lessons. The picture symbol set began with over 3,000 symbols, one of the largest available in its day.
