My Project

My students are hard-working and love to learn! These games will be a fun and engaging way for them to target their speech goals while having fun at the same time. I try to make my speech room fun, but my students know that the reason they are there is to work on goals that I have set for them so that they can be more successful in the classroom setting. These types of resources will certainly help me do that so that I have benefit for them in my classroom.
