As a Speech-Language Pathologist, I work with students with a variety of communication, language, and learning needs. These books provide accessible and engaging opportunities for every student to participate in literacy activities.\r\n\r\nThrough these new books, students are developing important skills such as vocabulary, listening comprehension, answering and asking questions, and expressing their thoughts and ideas. The adapted materials also support students who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), picture symbols, gestures, or other forms of communication to participate in reading activities. Most importantly, students are actively participating rather than simply listening to a story.\r\n\r\nIt has been especially rewarding to see students who may have previously struggled to access traditional books become excited and engaged in reading. Seeing their excitement, increased participation, and growing confidence is truly special. \r\n\r\nThank you for making these adaptive literacy resources possible. Your generosity is helping create more inclusive literacy experiences where all students, regardless of their abilities, can explore books, develop communication skills, participate in meaningful learning, and experience the joy of reading.","fullyFundedDate":1792173127409,"projectUrl":"project/adaptive-literacy-for-sped-students/10664507/","projectTitle":"Adaptive Literacy for SPED Students!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Kornely","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10559417_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1784778569959","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10559417"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_38162","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":525,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":92,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":29,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":47,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":9,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"10.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":70.3,"schoolId":38162,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Wadewitz Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Wadewitz Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/racine-unified-school-district/wadewitz-elementary-school/38162"}
