Speech Loves Magazines!
Funded Oct 19, 2013Thank you so much for your help in obtaining the subscriptions to these magazines. Over the past two weeks we have been receiving the magazines and putting them to good use. Our student's love the fun, current articles on entertainment, as well as the current political issues they have been reading about.
Today, a group of students used the magazines to act out a play. This provided social interaction, following directions, as well as decoding. The students enjoy completing the assignments at the end of each article and have done well doing so.
This has helped me to grasp the student's attention better because the articles are about current events that they are interested in. It is becoming easier to have these high school students attend speech because they are interested in the topics.
Thank you again, you have helped us so much!”

Speech Therapy/Auditory Processing Assessment/Games
Funded May 23, 2012It is with great pleasure that I thank you for your generous donation to my speech therapy students! Because of your kind heart my students are able to be assessed with the proper materials necessary. It is because of individuals like yourself that these students will now have appropriate placements and therapy treatments implemented during their school day.
The assessment and workbook have been put to good use and the student's are enjoying the great group activities that are included. We woud just like to extend our warmest gratitude for your generosity, Thank you again!!!”

Speech Therapy- Autism Assessment and Therapy Materials
Funded Jan 19, 2012Your generous donation to my students have helped to bring them out of their shell. The activity books that were purchased due to your donation are being used everyday to help encourage socialization within our groups during therapy. Some of our student's who would not talk during a group activity are now initiating conversation and learning about one another! The Social Responsiveness Scale that was purchased has supported one of our student's in an evaluation and now they have been properly diagnosed. Without individuals like yourselves it would not be possible to purchase these materials due to the nonexistent funding we receive to purchase supplies. You have made a difference in each one of our students lives. Thank you from all of the speech students at Benjamin N. Cardozo High School, we appreciate you!”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Franzese
