Learning Language Through PLAY

Help me give my students a variety of learning materials that promote communication, vocabulary development, and social-emotional skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hohstadt's classroom raised $428

This project is fully funded

My Students

I am a speech-language pathologist in an Education Center that serves students ranging in age from preschool to age 22 with significant and complex needs.

My Project

Play has a key role in developing, encouraging, and promoting speech-language and social skills.

These manipulatives offer a variety of opportunities for building communication and language skills through play and shared interactions.

They will be used during one on one and small group speech-language therapy sessions.

The magnets, bean bags, games, and exciting toys all promote vocabulary development in a variety of categories. These include body parts, shapes, colors, letters, foods, and clothing. Students are more motivated to communicate and learn when playing with exciting colorful toys and interactive manipulatives.
