I am a speech-language pathologist that provides speech therapy services to small rural school districts. I work with preschool through high school age students with special needs.
My students have speech and language delays with varying disabilities such as articulation disorders, language disorders, hearing impairments, cognitive impairments, learning disabilities, and autism.
My caseload consists of students with a variety of learning needs. I provide speech therapy services to students in a variety of locations such as elementary school, middle school, high school, preschool, daycare, colonies and home visits.
My Project
My students need photo cards and a game to practice speech sounds in a fun and interactive way.
The apraxia photo cards and game will keep my students engaged and on task while working on the individualized speech goals.
These materials will help make speech sessions hands-on and interactive. These hands-on materials will be effective for targeting speech sounds and patterns. The skills learned during speech therapy will help my students to improve their speech sounds so they are more comfortable to verbally participate in classroom activities.
My budget has been drastically cut in recent years. Without the help of generous donors, we can not afford even the most basic supplies. Please help me to get my students the supplies we need for a successful speech therapy program.
