Help me give my students satisfying tactile sensation puzzles that look like them. Puzzle toys can also help improve their focus as these let them center their attention on one activity.

My Project
My students with autism think in pictures rather than words, so puzzles offer them a creative outlet for grounding, in addition to being a generally enjoyable activity that we can do together. Puzzles also help develop the brain.
The process of figuring out where each piece belongs in a puzzle encourages focus and creativity while also improving memory and critical thinking skills – making them terrific tools for learning!
Children with autism can benefit greatly from working together on developmentally appropriate puzzles. The finished product looks like them. They become more confident in their own social abilities which improves their social skills!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
