My Project

Working as an school-based occupational therapist it is my job to foster students’ skill acquisition to participate in their school environment. Most of my students have visual motor, visual perceptual, fine motor, executive functioning, and motor coordination difficulties causing it to be more challenging for them to perform meaningful activities (occupations), such as arithmetics, sequencing/organizing ideas, and conceptualizing required for their role as a student.

It is my goal to provide my neurodiverse students with materials and activities of their special interest Minecraft to foster intrinsic motivation to improve their skills to function in a school environment.

With items such as Minecraft Maths Ages 6-7: Official Workbook, Writing for Minecrafters: Grade 2, Handwriting for Minecrafters: Printing, The Official Minecraft Coloring Adventures Book, and LEGO Minecraft they can improve their visual motor, visual perceptual, fine motor, executive functioning, motor coordination skills by using these Minecraft-themed items.

My students are so easy to love and I want to do anything and everything possible to provide them with all the equipment they need to make their school-based occupational therapy experience constructive and meaningful.
