Imagine walking up to the counter in a restaurant. You are hungry and thirsty. You are excited to order something to eat and drink. What if you were unable to speak your order? How would you feel? For a nonverbal student, this is a challenge faced every day. Feelings of frustration and anger are common for nonverbal students. Now imagine even without the power of speech, you could hand a picture to the cashier to communicate what you wanted to order. For nonverbal students, a picture exchange system can open the door to a whole new world of communication. The use of a color printer would allow for creating pictures that are engaging and life-like. These pictures can be used in the school setting and at home, and in the community. COVID-related concerns have restricted access to the community for many students with special needs. It is more important now than ever to provide communication opportunities for our students. Now imagine that you are sitting in a second-grade classroom during a class discussion. You know that you will be called on soon to contribute to the debate. Your heart is beating fast, and your hands are sweaty. You are nervous because you know that it sounds like a' W' when you say an 'R' sound. You are afraid that when you speak that your classmates will make fun of you. You would rather stay silent than sharing your ideas. Materials that can be used both at school and home to practice speech sounds can help remediate speech sound errors and increase students' confidence. The time spent during distance learning deprived students of the use of tangible and concrete materials. These materials would help address Standard CCSS ELA Literacy CCRA SL 1.
