My Project

I am a special education teacher in the Bronx who is passionate about meeting the needs of all students no matter their challenges. My students have autism and many of them are nonverbal. I plan to use these materials to create a stimulating and growth filled classroom environment.

The fine motor building set, peg puzzles, wooden architectural unit Blocks, Play Doh, LEGO Duplo, and LEGO classic bricks will strengthen the fine motor skills of my students.

Improving their fine motor skills will help them with everyday tasks in the real world such as tying their shoelaces, eating, and getting dressed.

The sensory toys will help my students remain calm and focused during instructional time and the board books will help with my students’ expressive and receptive language skills.

The sorting toys will improve their math skills as well as fine motor skills.

Help turn my dream into a reality by donating today.
