Help me give my students STEM based toys. My students struggle to communicate and sometimes to interact with the world around them. Real life and 3D experiences are how they learn the best!

My Students
My students come from all over South Philadelphia specifically for an Autism program. My school is located in a high needs/low income school district. These young learners have been given some more challenges than most at a young age but work hard to overcome them daily. These students come to school excited and ready to learn and grow. They are not a group to underestimate because they will rise above any expectation set for them, but sometimes they need a little extra help to get there. I am constantly amazed at how much my students teach me day in and day out.
My Project
Legos will help my students acquire the skills the need for living in the world around them. The skills they can learn with these Legos are endless.
Legos will give my students access to the hands on learning to help them grow!
The animal bingo will help my students to follow directions and build according, work as team with other students, and learn to ask for missing pieces. The simple machines set will help them explore the mechanics of the world around them and learn in a hands on setting! The community started kit will help my students learn about community helpers and different whos and wheres with physical examples! All these set will teach my students about patterns, directions, and working together.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
