Help me give my students activities to learn social leisure skills to learn to play especially a Chef's Play Kitchen & Bonus Accessory Set and a Kiddie Rockerstm Set !
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
My students are all children with Autism. This year I have all kindergartners. All of my students were in a pre-kindergarten setting last year and there they began to learn to play. They still need to learn better play skills.
Children with Autism have difficulty learning how to play with their friends.
Social leisure is an important part of our school day. It gives our students a time to learn how to socialize and understand the appropriate way to initiate, socialize, and play.
Learning with limited appropriate furniture for play is hard! Help us learn to play!!

Social leisure is an important part of our school day.
It gives our students a time to learn how to socialize in a structured setting. They are taught how to socialize with their peers. They need to understand the appropriate way to initiate, socialize, and play.
The biggest problem we have is that we do not have a proper social leisure area. We need a dramatic play area with a kitchen and kitchen toys including food. We need toys that my students can learn to play with as a group like the fold and go mini bard. We need building toys that promote fine motor skills like the magic connectors, basic skills board, and the stacking pegs and peg board.
More than half of 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
