Carroll Education Foundation's Grant Recipients and Sponsors 2006

Living in the Real World - Learning, Language and Literacy In the Preschool program, I do speech-language development and enrichment activities with all of the students in the program and not just the students who have IEP goals and objectives in the area of speech and language. The thematic units will be used to address receptive language skills, expressive language skills, social language skills, language processing skills and speech skills (fluency and articulation) in a more natural learning environment. The thematic units will facilitate role play situations, provide conversation starters and enhance lunch bunch activities. The thematic boxes can also extend the TEK and curriculum activities I support with my speech-language impaired students. Lakeshore Theme Boxes and Library are the materials being purchased with the generous grant donation.
