Developmentally Appropriate Activities and Snacks

Help me give my students access to developmentally appropriate learning materials as well as snacks for snack time at the end of the day!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Craig's classroom raised $210

This project is fully funded

My Project

My self-contained elementary school autism classroom has a variety of different needs. The state does not provide developmentally and ability appropriate resources for my students, so it has to be funded by the teacher! As a first year teacher, it has been difficult to start from scratch.

The following project has lots of puzzles and fine motor activities that can support my student's daily routine.

We would use a lot of these for choice time in the morning, extension activities in the afternoon, and work time throughout the day. These materials would receive lots of love!

Also included in this project are a variety of snacks. My school has a very diverse socio-economic dynamic and all of my students receive free/reduced lunch. Their needs require them to have an afternoon snack to get them through the day, which the school does not provide! During snack time, we use these snacks to work on fine motor skills such as opening packages, as well as cleaning up after ourselves!
