My Project

My students are amazing. They want to try their best and be successful. They need activities and supplies to help build strength in their hands such as stacking blocks, wooden games, busy boards, and play centers. They need extra time and practice to develop the muscles in their hands. Children are so excited when they see supplies and activities that are fun and help them develop at the same time. Children's learning is play. I want them to feel confident and successful during occupational therapy. Children need to play! They want to explore and problem-solve to understand basic activities and things that work!
