AMAZING autistic students need support!

Help me give my students items for various math, art and sensory stations within our classroom. The coloring books, fidget and stress tools will help calm them down when over stimulated by their peers or academic work.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

My students are apart the structure learning classroom at Jefferson Elementary. We are in need of support to help build stations within our classroom. Our modeling clay, coloring books, bingo dotters, sensory, and fidget tools will allow my students and opportunity to not only help calm down when feeling over whelmed but I can provide opportunities for social emotional and academic growth within our stations.

Please help support our students with autism.

They need various supplies to help adjust throughout the day whether in our structured learning classroom or during their inclusion time within the general education classrooms.
