My Project

My preschool students are developing their communication skills through child-directed and play-based activities. Popping toys are popular resources with my students. My young preschoolers are delayed in many areas. These toys will help to maintain their attention while we target their objectives.

Let's pop and play while we develop language skills!

Child-directed language therapy through play helps to engage the students in meaningful activities. We will work on semantics, pragmatics, and syntax skills. Popping activities are a fun way to work while we play!

Thank you so much for supporting my preschool speech/language students. Your donations are greatly appreciated.
