My Project

Having access to ink will allow me to create and print engaging, hands-on materials that support my students’ speech and language development. Many of my students struggle with verbal expression, comprehension, and articulation, and they learn best through visuals and interactive activities. With printed resources, I can provide visual supports, hands-on activities, adapted books and social stories, as well as home practice materials.

With limited access to technology, having printed materials ensures that my students receive the individualized support they need in a way that works best for them.

This will provide consistent, high-quality printed materials to enhance speech and language development, increase student engagement and participation with interactive visuals and activities, support carryover of skills at home by sending home personalized practice sheets, and improve communication and confidence in my students by giving them the tools they

My students are incredibly resilient, curious, and eager to learn, despite facing challenges. They attend a diverse, low-income school where every child receives free breakfast and lunch, and resources are often limited. They have Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) and require specialized support to develop their communication skills. Despite these challenges, my students show up every day ready to learn and grow. They light up when they see new, engaging materials tailored to their needs. By providing them with high-quality printed resources, I can help ensure they get the support they deserve to build strong communication skills that will serve them for a lifetime.
