Who doesn't love to play games and interact with their friends/peers? During speech/language therapy, games are a natural and functional way to learn social skills and basic vocabulary. Many of my students are on the Autism Spectrum and have major deficits in social skills. They struggle to understand the rules of games and interact appropriately with their peers. Games are functional because they allow me to teach skills that will help my students make friends, which will help them have a positive experience at school and at home. The use of games in the speech/language therapy setting and in the classroom setting allow the students to generalize the skills they learn to multiple settings. The end goal is that these students will increase their vocabulary and social skills to feel confident and enjoy interactions with their family and peers. This project will only be possible with your support! Thank you!
