Funded Jun 14, 2021The kids are absolutely so thrilled whenever we get to use the materials that you came together to provide! We know that new skills are learned fastest in play and when multiple senses are involved. The 'alphabet sounds teaching tubs' have been an especially big hit. We use them to practice sounds by finding all of the items that have a beginning /t/ sound for example. They get to sort through and touch a bunch of cute knick knacks in the process so they dig what can otherwise be boring exercises. My older students are big fans of the white boards that we use for creating and writing sentences for a few reasons. Mistakes seem less permanent than when we write on looseleaf, they can choose colorful markers and can illustrate the short narratives they create. Speech and Language therapy is a whole lot more engaging this year thanks to your wonderful generosity!”
With gratitude,
