My Project

All of the students on my caseload are on the Autism spectrum. Many of them have difficulty with engaging with their peers, asking and answering questions and retelling stories. In addition, as a speech therapist we also collaborative lessons in the classroom that go along with school curriculum. This month it’s focusing on community helpers!

My goal with this project is to help my students access the curriculum in ways that are appropriate for their various learning styles!

Being granted these materials will provide the support my students need in order to succeed in school!
