My Project

Help me give my students access to more resources to target their speech and language goals!

The goal of our Speech room is to have fun and learn at the same time.

These materials from Super Duper, Learning Resources, and SPARK Innovations are specifically tailored to target language development and highly engaging.

Visual aids and manipulatives will help to increase my students' attention and motivation to participate. These materials can also be integrated into play with a variety of common board games and toys, making it easier to target each student's individual goals while playing their game of choice.
