Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Creativity is such an important part of my students' education, at times it can be a real challenge because we are still developing our fine motor skills. This project includes a lot of different things to better engage my students in activities, and better develop their skills!

Adaptive art supplies play a crucial role in supporting students with disabilities by providing tools and materials that cater to their unique needs, allowing them to express themselves creatively and participate fully in art activities.

There are so many great things in this project various types of rainbow scratch paper, adaptive tools, crayons and more! The treats will be used to reward the students for behavior and participation. These projects and materials will help to support our students when they are in special area with their general education peers and help them make some pretty cool stuff.

Most of the things my mother saved from my childhood were all the paintings and pictures I created at school. I know this project will have a tremendous impact on their learning at school and also allow them to take home projects they can be proud of. Thank you for considering this project!
