As a speech-language pathologist working with preschool and elementary-aged students, I support children with a range of communication needs including speech sound disorders, language delays, and social-communication challenges. Your donation has made therapy more engaging and meaningful for my students.\r\n\r\nThese new books help students build important skills such as vocabulary, sentence structure, story comprehension, and retelling. We also use books to practice speech sound targets in a natural way through repeated exposure to key words and phrases.\r\n\r\nOne book we have especially enjoyed is Pip and Posy, which was donated through this project. Even though the language relatively accessible, my preschoolers were still introduced to new and rich vocabulary such as \"snatched\" and \"cross\" (as in upset). Students practiced predicting the characters' feelings and what they might do next. The story also gave students the chance to work on speech targets like /s/ blends in words such as \"scooter.\"\r\n\r\nThank you again for helping provide resources that support my students' communication growth while making learning fun and motivating.","fullyFundedDate":1768695255846,"projectUrl":"project/books-that-build-communication/10030556/","projectTitle":"Books That Build Communication","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sherman","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8182152_orig.jpg?crop=2784,2784,x42,y756&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1741206815545","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8182152"},{"teacherId":998796,"projectId":9989468,"letterContent":"Clearly the new books are bold, influential and immediately flew off my \"new books\" desk.\r\nKids are in line for the \"Spot\" books and jump at the opportunity to read with a Spot buddy plushie.

We appreciate the artist books for young readers, the appeal of the covers and the exposure to books about real people is a plus.\r\nThe graphic novels are a great addition to our library.
