My name is Lewis. I am 10 years old and in fourth grade in elementary school. I like my dog named Milo; he is very smart and funny. I got a snake; it’s a ball python. Also, the color is banana leopard morph.
Next, I like to listen to music and I prefer rap music. My favorite rapper is Kendrick Lamar. He stutters too. Also, my dad and my dead uncle stutter too. My favorite TV show is SpongeBob because he is funny. My favorite SpongeBob character is Patrick because he is funny. I like to play outside, and I like to play soccer with my cousin. I practice shooting inside of a goal. I have a big soccer goal and play with it a lot. My favorite pop (Ms. Liz said everywhere else they say soda) is Dr. Pepper. My favorite food is over easy eggs.
My speech teacher tells me that stuttering is okay. I think stuttering is very annoying sometimes.
When I stutter in class, I feel embarrassed. Sometimes I stutter on the same word and sometimes I don’t. The words “morning” and “I” are really hard to say. I like to use easy onsets. Some people stutter, you’re not alone because I stutter too.

Hi, my name is Cain. I am 10 years old and I stutter. In my speech I have blocks, prolongations, and
sound repetitions. Here is a strategy that helps me a lot. I call it the blue jeep. First pick your favorite thing in motion. For example, a car, bike, or a skateboard. When you are speaking keep the word going and visualize your thing in motion. You can also practice your breathing with this strategy.
