Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Students come to see me when they have fine motor delays, to learn new play skills, have trouble paying attention, all of which affects their ability to become a successful student in a classroom. My new project aims to refresh the toys they have access to and reengage my little guys to become active participants to learn, play, and grow! These new toys focus on fine motor manipulatives to sort, count, use school tools, and become more coordination. I specifically picked these as they are flexible, can be used with many different levels of abilities, and can be interchangeable with other projects! I think they are going to love these!!
