My Project

I am a Speech Pathologist working with K-5th grade. My students rock. I am truly blessed everyday by them! They are hard workers and always try their best during Speech sessions to meet their goals.

We currently have a floor that is in need of repairs and is tile so it is cold and hard.

The rug and bean bags will allow us space to sit in the floor and work. I feel it is important for my students to get out of their desk during Speech time since they are in them all day. Providing them with an environment that is calm and comfortable will allow for improved outcomes and a better learning environment.
