FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tynan's classroom raised $580

My Project

My STEM for SPED project will provide a wonderful creative space for my special education students on the alternate curriculum to explore STEM activities and engage them in building, creating, using their fine motor skills, and their imaginations to create in the world of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

My SPED students with intellectual disabilities need a space to sit and create and the rug I have chosen will be their comfy place to build and design.

The activities I have chosen will engage them and allow them to explore their minds while learning about engineering and technology.

Help me help them by donating to this great cause and allowing my SPED students to have this great space to create and use their imaginations!
