Speak Your Mind, Not Just Your Words!

Help me give my students wordless stories to support their language skills (inferencing and answering questions) as well as toys to focus on language skills with my younger students.

My Project

With a caseload of students from ages 4 to 11, these materials would make the world of a difference to my practice as a speech-language pathologist. The wordless stories allow for imagination and children of all ages and all reading levels to make observations, inferences, answer WH- questions, and retelling stories. I currently have a small collection of books, but would love to build to my library with new stories for my students to support all these areas of language. The wind up toys and pretend food are great for imaginative play while supporting communication skills like following directions, joint attention, turn-taking, labeling, and using core vocabulary. These materials will be used until the end of the school year and for years to come. Thank you so much for your support, which will directly support children with language disorders and their communication skills at school and beyond!
