My name is Dean. I am in 2nd grade. I like Thanos. Thanos is a villain. My favorite lego is Thanos.
I
celebrate Ramadan. At Ramadan I fast. The end of Ramadan it is EID! At EID I get money. When I stutter I repeat words. Light contacts is a strategy I use. It helps me not to put my lips together hard.

Hi! My name is KiRon. I go to Yough Intermediate Middle School. I am 13 and I am going to tell you how I fix my stuttering. When I stutter, I take deep breaths, slow down, or start the sentence over. My speech teacher taught me all that stuff. If I keep it up, I will improve my stuttering.
I like football and like to watch the NFL. I hope to someday be in the NFL. My favorite teams are the Cleveland Browns, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the New York Giants. That is how I help my stuttering and the stuff I like.

My name is Kamari. I am 8 years old. I am in the third grade. I play Sims 4 and school games on the Nintendo Switch. I also like to play soccer.
I stutter when I talk. Because I stutter I go to speech. When I go
to speech class I practice my strategies. I use pausing in my sentences when I talk. I take full breaths when I talk because it helps me too. I feel good about stuttering and other people should feel good about themselves as well.

Dear Stutter (Karen), When I first met you, you were really annoying. You would pop out of nowhere and I didn’t know what to do with you. I would try and replace you, try to restart, but that didn’t work all that well. Then I learned to stretch you out and breathe. Or sometimes I would let you stay until you leave. Now I don’t avoid you, I work with you. I get along with you, and now I understand you. But in the future things might start to get complicated again. You will be annoying and get in the way, but we understand each other and I will work with you once again.
