My Project

My students are in a low income school district who do not have access to every day materials to assist them learn and improve their fine motor and visual motor skills. Please help replenish markers, crayons, cardstock, beads and glue sticks to the occupational therapy room. With these items students will be able to continue their growth and development.

My students love to work with their hands and manipulate small objects.

By replenishing these supplies we can continue to allow them to grow which only supports their educational performance in and out of the classroom. With the use of various mediums, they feel they can grow by offering a benign way to foster this growth.
