My Project

Help me provide an fun and engaging speech therapy sessions with books. My speech therapy students enjoy coming to speech to work on both speech and language skills essential for developing their reading and writing skills. I am requesting fun and engaging books and bookshelves to provide my students with access to literacy based speech therapy sessions. Children’s books are a wonderful way to grow my student speech sounds and language skills.

Help me provide my students engaging and organized books to incorporate in my students speech therapy sessions!

Fun, engaging, and accessable books will make allow my students to progress towards their speech and language goals. Each student deserves the opportunity to develop a voice, be able to express themselves, and communicate and be understood. Please help me provide my students with organized books for their speech therapy sessions.
