Fine Motor Development Through Artistic Practices

Help me give my students materials for fine motor development and artistic advancement.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Marcell's classroom raised $387

This project is fully funded

My Project

As we enter quarter 2 of the school year and have gotten to know our new students, the need for additional classroom materials has become apparent. Although we have many of the necessary supplies to support our scholars in academic areas, we could use supplemental materials to support artistic growth and fine motor development.

This Donor's Choose project is designed to support various scholars who have fine motor needs, and for our developing artists.

The pencil sharpeners, sketchpads, and stylus pens are materials that are in high demand. Lego sets are an opportunity to demonstrate creativity, teamwork, and fine motor skills. We could also use some sensory materials, such as fidgets and noise-cancelling headphones.
