My students come from a tough neighborhood in NYC. They have various and multiple special needs and have a very difficult time learning basic skills. They struggle every day trying to communicate their wants and needs. I am a Speech Language Pathologist who is new to this school and from my experience, these kids would benefit from having pictures all over the school to help them communicate and to help them understand the world around them. Having visual symbols in their environment will significantly reduce student frustration, and decrease the amount of time teachers spend trying to figure out what the students want, and increase teachable moments throughout the day.
