Help me give my students the art materials they need to express their creativity. With the tempera paint and scissors my students will be able to create nice pictures on the paper.

Celebrating 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 Students
My students are from a Title 1 School in the Los Angeles area. I teach students on the Autism Spectrum Moderate/Severe Disabilities. Due to the circumstances of distance learning my students are home trying to understand why they are not at school. Many of my students are sharing a cell phone, tablet or computer to complete their academics at this time.
Unfortunately, many of my students lack the materials we need to do fun activities such art crafts or hands on materials.
My students are very tactile and require actual materials to understand a concept like matching by color or by size.
My Project
With your generosity my students will be able to have the materials they need to be creative from home. Having materials such as colored rice, and colored pasta will help them learn their colors while creating nice art projects. Most of my students have dexterity problems so the use of scissors and Play Doh will help their fingers get stronger in order to help them write as well.
Help my students discover their creativity by providing materials such as paper, glue sticks and colors to work with.
The tissue paper is a great way for my students to learn how to separate small items which in turn helps with finger strengthening.
