My Project

These speech materials will be used daily with my students in speech-language therapy. Many of our students have an array of goals to reach in therapy. With these materials, I hope to keep my students engaged and reach their highest potential.

As a new therapist, I need help to build my arsenal of tools in order to make therapy fun and engaging for all students.

Students requiring speech therapy can have many complex needs. These materials will allow me to serve a greater number of students in need of services to improve overall receptive and expressive language skills. Your support is so very much appreciated.
