Teach the Speech!

My students need an iPad, learning cards, and other activities to ensure that their language skills are being met during therapy sessions. The KNEX and play dough will benefit my students with sensory needs during therapy.

My Students

My students range in age from 5 years old to 11 years old. All of my students are diagnosed with special needs including but not limited to physical, emotional, cognitive impairments, autism spectrum disorders, multiple disabilities, etc. Many of my students are nonverbal and/or present with minimal verbal skills. They also utilize a range of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices including manual communication boards, picture symbols, gestures, dynamic display communication devices, etc. I try to provide my students with the best materials and activities during our therapy sessions to facilitate progress toward their IEP goals.

My Project

The play dough and board games will allow my students to gain a multidisciplinary approach to speech therapy. The therapy cards as well as the iPad will allow my students to explore speech and communication in a variety of ways and allow them to utilize language skills in ways they have never been able to before. Additionally, there are so many speech and language games and apps available on the iPad that my students would love to have the opportunity to explore and use! These materials will give my students more ways to become excited about improving their communication skills and providing them with motivation to try their best during their therapy sessions!
