Help me give my students of different abilities the chance to create and explore art in a safe yet fun way! These tools and materials are versatile enough for several projects to come.

My Project
While many of us are able to grip objects, such as pencils and pens, and draw cohesive shapes (stick figures count!), I have some students who need a bit more structure in a very literal sense. By using things such as cookie cutters and extruders, I can have my special needs students more involved in the art room while not limiting them creatively.
It is incredibly important that we give the same level of attention to all of our students, both typical and atypical.
This support will grant us the ability to create more variety of works while still allowing the expression of their own thoughts. With something as simple as a cookie cutter shape, I can use them with playdough, clay, or even printmaking as stamps. It also allows them to practice various grips to improve their motor functions. We strive to have our students create to show us beyond their physical or mental capabilities.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
