Help me give my students a Kids Around the World Activity Carpet to have a place to play with materials that reflect themselves and their friends' cultures and abilities.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our self-contained ASD Preschool classroom includes 12 three and four-year-olds with various abilities. Our students are hands-on learners who require short and engaging activities.
They are happy and curious learners who: think very concretely and literally, learn through their experiences at home and at school, learn with their whole bodies; love to taste, touch, move, explore, smell, watch, and wonder.
They look forward to coming to school and experiencing a range of activities. They are always ready to engage in active learning. Each day is focused on structure and exposure to new ideas and constructive work.
My Project
Our classroom is very diverse and it is important to provide engaging materials so our young learners can learn through play.
The toys and the carpet that they will be played upon as we return to the classroom will help establish a sense of our inclusive community.
When children work on puzzles they are using fine motor and problem-solving skills, when they play with dolls they practice social-emotional development. By playing with toys and puzzles that represent multicultural and differing abilities they will be able to recognize themselves and others as they play and learn together.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
