My Project
Help my students develop their fine motor skills. This year, many of my students have struggled with activities that involve the usage of their fine motor skills. Students at this age need a lot of fine motor skills activities to be ready for challenges they will encounter in kindergarten, such as holding a pencil, crayon and marker to write or draw within the lines.
By donating to our project, you are providing my student the opportunity to develop their fine motor skills, through hands-on activities, that will allow for future success in all academic areas.
Therapy putty and playdoh will allow my students to strengthen their finger and hand muscles, which will lead to better pencil grasp, being able to cut with scissors and many other educational activities. The games will allow them to push and pull, DEVELOP FINE MOTOR SKILLS and also reinforce numbers, counting, and color recognition while strengthening fingers and hands
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
