My Students
I am a bilingual speech-language pathologist (SLP) in a public elementary school located in Queens, NY. The amazing kiddos that I have the pleasure of working with are mainly special-education students that range from 4 to 11 years old. My students are diagnosed with a range of speech/language disabilities.
As a new SLP, I am continuously working on building my library of materials - making sure that they individually target the goals/needs of my kiddos.
My students are curious, enthusiastic, and eager to immerse themselves in anything ranging from books to high-quality therapy activities.
My Project
My students are eager and willing to learn. In order to have effective therapy sessions, my students need effective, quality therapy materials. For example, these materials can target phonemic/phonological awareness skills (e.g., letter-sound recognition, rhyming, blending, segmenting words, etc.) which is crucial for early reading skills. They can also target vocabulary skills (e.g., antonyms, synonyms, multiple meaning words, homophones, etc.) which is crucial for expanding children's vocabularies and understanding word relationships.
These are just a couple of examples of how donating to this project will help my students in need develop their speech and language skills further.
Anything will help and I am truly grateful for your generosity!
