Dear 5th Grade Teacher,
I want to tell you that I stutter and need some time to process words. When I stutter, sometimes I will not have words come out even though my mouth is open. Some tools I use to help with my stuttering are taking a second to breathe and restart my sentence. When I stutter, it is helpful if you let me pronounce my word and don't try to guess my word. Did you know over 70 million people in the world stutter? Some famous people who stutter are Ed Sheeran and Shaq. Some other things about me are that I'm a hard worker. I also have a hamster named Berry. Thank you for reading this note about me.
Sincerely,
Tyson, 9 Mt. Pleasant, MI
Hi, my name is Sam. I am 12 years old, and I am in 6th grade. Some things that I enjoy doing in my free time are playing soccer, playing video games, and playing pickle ball and badminton in my driveway. I think that stuttering is really annoying especially when I am talking to people I know. Stuttering is also hard to explain mainly because I am still learning about it 4 years after I started.
Sam, 12, Los Gatos, CA Hi, my name is Raheem. I am 9 years old. I live in
Saint Paul, Minnesota. I like to play drums. I am really good at football. Sometimes, I stutter. When I stutter, I feel okay. Something that is hard about stuttering is talking. Like when I was in 3rd grade, I was doing a presentation and people were asking me what I was saying. My advice for kids who stutter is to take a
deep breath, think about the words you want to say, and just say it.
