My Project

I am a pre-k special education teacher. More than half of my students are diagnosed with ASD. Overstimulation, changes in tasks, changes in routine and peer emotions are some of the obstacles my students endure daily. These materials and tools can help them cope with stressful situations and help them adjust/calm their emotions. The needed material will also help my students with their fine motor skills and identification of common things. Every day is a learning experience for my students and I would like to give them the best opportunity to learn and grow.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
