Revolutionizing Speech-Language Therapy with iPads
My students need iPads because they are eager to utilize hands-on materials to learn, and I would love to offer them this opportunity during their speech and language sessions!
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Every year I get nervous. What will they be like? Will we get along? Will they like me? Will I be able to help them succeed?
As a Speech-Language Pathologist, I service students with all different developmental levels that come from all different cultural backgrounds and income levels.
No matter what their story is, they are welcomed with open arms into my office to work towards their individual goals in order to progress in their educational career.
In my room, we target expressive and receptive language, articulation, phonemic awareness, daily living skills and pragmatic skills. I strive, as their SLP, to make them feel proud for showing even the smallest improvement, and if no improvement is being seen, I still like to positively acknowledge their willingness and drive to try.
My Project
My students crave hands-on, interactive learning. With the use of iPads, I will be able to help them achieve their speech and language goals with ease. Students will be able to practice their letter/sound recognition, play games targeting linguistic concepts and listen to stories to target their recall skills.
When servicing students with all different developmental levels, I like to integrate technology to keep them motivated and differentiate their learning.
Your generous donation to this project will improve our speech program by building stronger communication skills.
The ability to utilize iPads during speech sessions will help my students increase their motivation and enjoy the learning experience.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
