My name is Phoebe. I am 9 years old. I have a tool kit that keeps my tools safe. These are my tools or strategies: slider, bouncer, cancellation, turtle talk, light touch, and peace breathe. I am a good skier. I ski at Sugarbush Mountain in Vermont. I have glasses. I do not have siblings but it is fun being an only child. I have a really big dog. His name is Rocky. I love reading and I am a really good soccer player. I love math and research. I want to be a pilot and an astronaut when I grow up. My favorite animal is a panda. It is alright to stutter, but if you work hard, you will get better at not stuttering.
I LOVE SPEECH
Hello, I’m De’Ommi, I live in St. Louis Parish and go to Brown Elementary. I go to speech on Mondays and Wednesdays because I need to work on my fluency. I love coming to speech, it’s the best thing ever because I get out of class. We like to use putty to help stretch out my sounds. We also play games which help my speech.

Use Easy Starts To Help
Hello my name is Achilles and I am 10 years old. I started stuttering when I was in kindergarten. It made me feel very sad when kids made fun of me when I stuttered, some times it made me cry. I use easy starts to help me not stutter that much. My old speech teacher used to play games with me when I came to speech. My advice to other people is to not let other people make you feel sad, and to use easy starts to help you to not stutter.

Get Frustrated My name is Sarah and I am in 5th grade. I go to Acreage Pines Elementary. I go to speech at my school. I love My Little Pony. My advice to kids is to use a strategy to help with their speech. Don’t get frustrated if you stutter because you are not alone.
