My Students

The students in our pre-kindergarten through second grade primary school are amazing, unique individuals! Each come with their own stories, gifts and perspectives. As a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP), it is a pleasure to help 40+ of our students each year unfold their stories as they learn to communicate effectively and clearly.

Vocabulary is the foundation for learning language.

Research shows that vocabulary strongly correlates to reading comprehension, intelligence, and general ability. A typical 6 year old is using about 2,400 words and can comprehend 22,000 words on average. The expressive and receptive vocabulary skills of many of the students I work with fall well below average.

My Project

The materials I am requesting are for my young speech/language students who cannot quite reach the whiteboard hanging in my office. We use the magnetic whiteboard a lot for creating words, sentences as they practice their targeted speech sounds, grammar structures and vocabulary groupings. Currently, the students can access the lower third of the board. It would be so nice to have room to spread out our creative thoughts and ideas.

The free standing white board will allow my students to safely create and manipulate their magnetic pictures/words/sentences as they build their vocabulary, syntax and articulation skills.

Manipulatives allow the younger students to grab hold of and interact with their learning targets. The rest of the items I have requested (paper, laminate, velcro, magnets) are for creating an expanded resource of pictures and words from which the students can interact and manipulate.
