My Project

This project is made up of resources for our speech and language therapy sessions. My students are developing their communication skills through structured play-based activities. These activities are highly engaging. My students exhibit significant communication delays. Some have been identified with autism spectrum disorder. Many of my students are gestalt language processors.

The students learn through play.

These materials will be used to structure the play to engage the students and target their communication development.

The slide and pop toys are perfect for my students who have difficulty with communication, attention, and fine motor skills. These toys will be sure to bring laughter to our sessions.

Thank you for your support of our early language learners.
