My students are entering a whole new world of learning when they return to "school" this September. The sharing of small manipulatives and everyday objects children use to develop critical hand skills will be almost impossible due to new COVID safety guidelines. Equally important is that most students will be learning, in part, from home where they do NOT have these supplies. This project will help give each student his or her OWN small collection of important supplies with which to develop many fine and visual motor skills, improve muscle strength, and engage in art and fine motor projects - a SAFE "bag" of fun and learning of their OWN! These will include fidgets, theraputty, stickers, foam cubes, stress balls, lacing practice and more. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve students' manipulative and hand skills, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement and successful participation in important life skills!
