Your donation of mirrors, prize box toys, markers, and two games has already made such a positive impact on my students and our school year.\r\n\r\nThe mirrors have been especially helpful during speech sessions because they allow my students to receive instant visual feedback when practicing their speech sounds. The students love using them and have enjoyed being able to watch themselves as they practice producing their sounds.\r\n\r\nAt the beginning of the school year, we also used the markers to complete our \"About Me\" pages. My students really enjoyed being creative and sharing things about themselves!\r\n\r\nAnd, of course, the games have been a huge hit! My students in grades 2–5 absolutely love playing Tapple. It is a great category-based game that encourages students to practice vocabulary, word retrieval, and language skills while having fun. It is also perfect for those times when we have just a few extra minutes and want to squeeze in a quick game!\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting my students and helping make our speech room a fun, engaging, and welcoming place to learn. Your generosity gives my students opportunities to learn and practice important skills in ways that feel like play.
