Create Meaningful Sensory and Fine Motor Experiences for Occupational Therapy
Help me give my students unique materials in order to improve their sensory processing and fine motor/visual skills. Materials will be provided to children with various disabilities in an Occupational Therapy room to promote independence and learning.

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.
My Project
I am an occupational therapist that provides meaningful sensory and fine motor learning opportunities for students with special needs such as Autism, ADHD, and Learning disabilities, grades K-5 in a low income NYC city school.
These fine motor toys/activities, craft materials and pencil grips will help provide students with novel sensory opportunities to improve their overall functioning, independence, fine motor and sensory processing skills.
My students are eager learners who seek sensory input and learn best through multi sensory approaches such as visual, tactile and auditory learning. We would will really appreciate these materials for our therapy sessions.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
