Fine Motor Skills To Motor through Life

Help me give my students fine motor skills to succeed in their academics and life. We need Indestructible Giant Beads Patterns, Trace Write Alphabet Center, and Gumball Grab Pre-Writing Game.

My Project

Working with students with autism brings on several different challenges. Most students with autism have a lot of different fine motor capabilities. Their educational plans have goals to encourage the skill to grow.

Having several different fine motor activities will keep the students encouraged to continue their growth.

Students will enjoy having all the different materials to help their skills. It is important that the students have different activities to keep their interest and that will encourage their growth in the fine motor skills. They will need these skills through out life.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
