My Project

My goals for this project are to enhance the way we are working on our articulation, language, and social skills. New and different art supplies to refresh, improve lessons and expand the imagination. My students need a little help with their communication skills and the activities, art supplies and games will help them transfer skills from play to everyday activities. The new games and activities will help inspire the students to use their skills in new and exciting ways. When typical communication skills are difficult it is so important to be open to new and creative ways of telling others your stories and involving them in ways that may not include typical speech and language.

Strong communication skills are so important when trying to get needs, wants and ideas across to others.

Strengthening these skills are vital for my students' academic and social success. They need more diverse ways to bridge the communication gap.
