My Project

Help me create personalized summer gift bags for my students to practice their speech and language therapy skills. My students love to draw and express their ideas through drawing/ writing. Give my students the gift to continue being creative while working on their speech and language therapy skills this summer. Each student will receive a summer kit in a bag that will be personalized with their name written on it and stuffed with colorful tissue paper.

Many of my students live in shelters and do not have bubbles, crayons, chalk and paper at home.

Each bag will contain bubbles, crayons, drawing pad and chalk. My students will be able to draw their own stories, write about and work on their social skills by taking turns and working together. Many of my students live in shelters and do not have bubbles, crayons, chalk and paper at home.

My students who are early communicators and learning how to speak using a combination of sign language and words will be able to request more bubbles while participating in a motivating actiivty.

My students who are working on learning their letter sounds can practice writing their letters with crayons and chalk outside.

Your contribution to this project would mean the world to me and my students. I cannot wait to see their faces when they each get their own creativity summer bag.

There is nothing better than being able to spend time outside in the summer, be creative and work on speech/language therapy skills.
