Our speech therapy room is a small space, and we want to make it a bright place that is fun and productive. When I first set foot in the speech therapy room in April in the middle of the pandemic, I used whatever we already had there to work with my students. Now it’s time to really make this room our own and fill in the gaps in materials. We need a new carpet that can be used for building blocks, car races, and story time. Wall decorations can spark imagination and remind students of the skills they’re working on. Articulation and phonology practice materials will help in a time that we can’t see each other’s mouths (because of masks). Thank you for your help!
