My Project

My students are working on their receptive language, expressive language, and pragmatic (social) language skills! They will use the white boards and markers to answer questions and work on their vocabulary skills. The games will be used to facilitate communication using social language. The "person in charge" will get the special chair and be the facilitator for the day.

The speech room is new this year and is in need of wall art.

The students will be working together on projects to fill the walls and make the space their own.
