During sessions, the iPad lets me: Model writing and letter formation visually (students can watch, then practice step-by-step). Provide interactive practice that reduces frustration (students can trace, drag-and-drop, or select responses when handwriting is still developing), and give immediate feedback and quick repetition (key for strengthening motor planning, attention, and confidence). The most exciting part for students is that learning feels instant and success-filled. The iPad turns practice into something they want to try again. Students love seeing their work appear clearly on the screen and getting a chance to \"do it one more time.\" \r\n\r\nThey're also thrilled about the new social-emotional books (like A Little SPOT of Learning and the I'm In Control of Myself set) and the hands-on sensory tools that make our therapy room feel like a calming and welcoming place to learn social/emotional/behavioral skills. A student working on self-regulation loves using the feelings/SEL supports as a check-in before starting the session. \r\n\r\nBecause of your generosity, my students feel set up for success. Thank you for investing in their growth.","fullyFundedDate":1758726868232,"projectUrl":"project/stronger-skills-brighter-futures-ot-re/9725661/","projectTitle":"Stronger Skills, Brighter Futures: OT Resources for Kids","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rachel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10268542"},{"teacherId":4676575,"projectId":9477211,"letterContent":"The students have been having such a wonderful time exploring the Magna-Tiles!
