For many of my students, expressing their thoughts, understanding language, or participating in classroom discussions can be challenging. These communication barriers can affect not only their academic success but also their confidence, friendships, and overall school experience.\r\nThe resources requested through this project will provide engaging, evidence-based activities that allow me to tailor therapy to each student's individual needs. High-quality materials from Teachers Pay Teachers will help me target speech sounds, language development, social communication, vocabulary, comprehension, and other essential communication skills through interactive lessons that keep students motivated and excited to learn.\r\nYour generosity will have a lasting impact far beyond our therapy room. As students strengthen their communication skills, they become more confident participating in class, advocating for themselves, building meaningful relationships, and reaching their academic goals. Every new word spoken, every successful conversation, and every boost in confidence is made possible by supporters like you.\r\nThank you for believing in my students and investing in their futures. Your support will help provide meaningful learning opportunities that empower children to find their voices and succeed both in school and in everyday life.","fullyFundedDate":1764850945517,"projectUrl":"project/supporting-speech-and-language-through-e/9569889/","projectTitle":"Supporting Speech and Language through Engaging Resources","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Taylor","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9599129_orig.png?crop=272,272,x0,y163&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1721354486346","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9599129"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_31177","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":936,"numTeachers":62,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":5,"percentBlack":26,"percentWhite":47,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":8,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"15.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":67.1,"schoolId":31177,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about David C Hinson Senior Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"David C Hinson Senior Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/volusia-county-schools/david-c-hinson-senior-middle-school/31177"}
