My Students

My students are amazing! They are eager to learn and participate in new activities, however lack of experiences and materials will hold them back. They have a difficult time connecting with traditional books and need books adapted.

My students are 5 to 14 years-old but are all functioning on preschool level academically.

All of my students have limited social skills and have significant language deficit in expressive, receptive, and pragmatic language skills. My students are often frustrated because they cannot communicate their needs and wants. Many times they struggle to keep up with the other students because they do not speak and cannot participate in the same ways. I work tremendously hard to expose them to as many experiences within my means, however this is getting harder and harder.

My students are diagnosed with intellectual disability and autism. They learn and respond positively to curriculum that is visual, kinesthetic and allows them to practice their skills repeatedly.

My Project

I would like to make individualized pouches for each student to be able to take home to use to work on their speech and language skills. They will each have a larger pouch to hold their speech notebooks and writing materials and smaller pouches to hold manipulative that they will pick to help them participate in remote instruction for speech, including a fidget toy of their choosing to help them attend to instruction.

Each student will have a pouch of their very own to improve their speech and language skills.
