Tools & Materials to Grow in OT

Help me give my students materials that will target skills to help them access their educational curriculum and school enviornment.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kinsella's classroom raised $767

This project is fully funded

My Project

The goal of this project is to diversify the materials for my students to target OT skills within the school environment. These tools and materials will target their fine motor, visual motor, visual perceptual and sensory processing skills to aid in their access of their school enviornment and curriculum. All of these skills are needed to enrich their school experience as well as aid in their social and emotional success within their classrooms. My students are creative, determined, and kind. These materials will complement their effort and improve skill development in a variety of ways!
