More Hand/Finger Movement Needed

Help me give my students more "hands on" projects. Now that we have been in school for half a year I can see some children need more practice using their fingers and hands.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Kirkland's classroom raised $294

My Project

I plan to use these items to give some of my students the added practice for finger and hand movement that they are needing. Some still can't hold a pencil correctly or even open a bag of chips.

Using the lacing cards, they will be using their fingers more, the stencils will give them practice holding a pencil or crayon better.

I want to use the easel to give them better opportunities to paint, be creative, along with more hand movement. I look forward to using these in my classroom.
