My Project

My students would love to have books to build communication and vocabulary. My students with Autism will benefit greatly from creating hands-on and interactive books. Creating communication books will teach my students about how to communicate with others. These books are interactive and hands-on to help engage and motivate my students to learn in a fun and easy way. The activities in the book will help my students understand how to communicate with others and enhance logical knowledge. They also will help develop fine motor skills, communication, and imagination. Thank you!
