Help me give my students a means of self-expression, through art. By having a silicone art mat, this will allow them to maintain their area clean to avoid being triggered. Art Dot will focus on fine motor skills.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
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.
Art has a profound impact on students with disabilities, offering them a means of self-expression, communication, and personal growth. Through creative activities such as painting, drawing, and sculpture, students with disabilities can develop fine motor skills, sensory processing abilities, and cognitive functions in a supportive and inclusive environment.
Art provides an outlet for expressing emotions, thoughts, and experiences that may be difficult to articulate verbally, fostering self-confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of belonging.
Additionally, art promotes social interaction and peer relationships, encourages teamwork and collaboration, and enhances cognitive development and academic achievement. Overall, art empowers students with disabilities to explore their creativity, develop essential skills, and thrive academically and emotionally. Through different mediums students will experience self expression in a variety of ways.
