Help me give my students new puzzles for my "Total Communication Unit" classroom for students with Autism. My students really enjoy puzzles, especially the floor puzzles that we all get together as a group to complete!

My Project
I serve students with Autism in the Total Communications Unit at my campus. I have verbal and non-verbal students who function at varying levels of the Autism spectrum. My students range from those who are highly independent to those who require constant assistance to complete daily tasks and routines. Despite their varying degrees of functionality both academically and socially, they all have a similar affinity for puzzles. Unfortunately, our existing puzzles are worn and several have missing pieces. Also, I serve students from grades K-2. So most of my students are with me for 3 years. As a result, they are utilizing the same puzzles that they've had throughout that entire period. With your generosity, we will be able to give new puzzles to challenge their complex but beautiful minds!
