Motor Skills in My Small World

Help me give my students stepping stones, hopper balls, beads and lacing strings, and fine motor toys to develop fine motor skills in my Pre-K class of medically fragile, physically challenged students.

My Project

Help the students in my class reach out and touch the world! My classroom is made up of little people with physical and health challenges. Each morning we start our day at table top time learning to use our hands to interact with the world. I am looking to purchase some fine motor friends including Finn, the fish, Hoot the owl, Steggy the Dino, Pedro the peacock, and the hedgehog, along with lacing beads, strings, and matching, sorting and stacking toys which will provide a fun way to practice needed hand skills!

At social play, we will be able to practice core strength and coordination by using stepping stones, an interactive soccer ball, big feelings, Pineapple, and jumping hopper balls!

Help me to help my students increase their gross motor skills, too! What a start towards confidence, balance, strength, and coordination!
