Help me give my students tools to learn their R sound in speech!

My Project

Many students struggle to make an R sound and others, which can cause reading, writing and social concerns.

My students would benefit from using tactile tools to aid with sound production and to make progress on their speech goals which will help them throughout their lifetime!

Students in speech groups work so hard on their goals during each and every speech therapy session and could use further help from generous donors like you!

They will feel so successful when they can make beautiful R sounds in speech group and at school!
