Curriculum That Teaches Communication — In All Its Forms
Every child has a way of communicating, even when words aren’t their strongest tool.
The SheTeachesMe curriculum is built on this truth: when we teach the skills behind communication — emotional understanding, self‑expression, regulation, and independence — children begin to show us what they know.
Sometimes that communication looks like spoken language.
Sometimes it looks like a gesture, a routine, or a moment of connection.
And sometimes… it looks like art.
Why Visual Work Matters
Many neurodivergent learners express emotion and understanding through images before language.
Artwork can show:
emotional recognition
perspective taking
awareness of others
internal states
storytelling
processing of experiences
This is why we don’t measure success only by grades or worksheets — we look for communication breakthroughs in whatever form they appear.
A Note About the Work You See Here
The examples below are not from clients.
They are from my daughter, whose artwork reflects years of growth in communication, emotional recognition, and expressive skills.
Her work shows what is possible when children are supported with tools that make sense to them.
This is what learning can look like when understanding comes before expectations.
