PT Por qué defiendo a los que no hablan como yo

La comprensión de lo que la ortografía para comunicar aporta a nuestras familias
As I reflect on what Spelling to Communicate (S2C) has brought to our lives since we started in 2020, I continue to find myself eternally grateful. My husband and I have twin, almost 11-year-old, boys who are nonspeakers and spellers. We also have a 4-year-old, a 16-month-old, 2 dogs, and a cat, so, as you […]

C, R y P

Esperanzas para 2023
What does the New Year really mean? A new tax year? Getting in the habit of writing 2023 instead of 2022? Starting the same resolution for the 10th time? What if this year we change the way we think about resolutions. Hope. Inclusion. Understanding. Compassion. Patience. Love. Let’s shake things up this year and make […]
2022 ha terminado. Entonces, ¿qué hizo I-ASC?

There are now over 300 S2C Practitioners across the globe encompassing 14 countries and 35 states. But let’s focus on that big number, […]
Vamos a catar
