  • 2024-25 Occupational Therapy Supplies

    Funded Oct 21, 2024

    Your donation has provided our students with tools that make a real difference in their learning. The sensory chew tools, fidgets, and fine motor aids are used daily to strengthen coordination, focus, and engagement. The art and craft supplies have allowed us to create fun, engaging projects that support fine motor development. This fall and winter, we've used the provided paint, daubers, and stickers to create several fun fine motor craft activities. As we continue our work, these materials will support hands-on projects that enhance students' academic and social skills, helping them succeed both inside and outside the classroom.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Lydia

  • LES Sensory Room

    Funded Oct 21, 2024

    Thank you for supporting our sensory room project! These resources provide our special education students with a designated space to regulate their emotions and meet their sensory needs. The white noise machine and light projector create a calming atmosphere, while the sensory tiles and table fillers offer tactile input for self-regulation. With this support, students are able to return to class feeling focused, calm, and ready to learn. Your generosity has created a space where our students can truly thrive!”

  • Fine Motor Fun: Boosting Skills with Playful Activities

    Funded Oct 21, 2024

    My students were thrilled to discover and explore the sorting toys, building sets, and games! These tools have become essential in our weekly occupational therapy sessions, serving as highly motivating resources to strengthen my students' fine motor skills while making learning fun. Thanks to your generosity, my students are not only building crucial skills but also experiencing the joy of learning through play. As the school year progresses, it's exciting to have a variety of play-based tools to engage and support my students. I am so grateful for the positive impact you've made on their education.”

    Thank you so much for your generous donations to my first DonorsChoose project, "OT Supplies for Miss Lydia's Learners"!

    My students were overjoyed to explore our new fine motor toys. We've had countless hours of fun with the Big Feelings Pineapple, Letter Matching Nuts and Bolts, Feed the Animals, and Magnetic Alphabet Tracing Board.The sensory tools, including weighted lap pads, weighted stuffed animal, and noise-canceling headphones, have been invaluable in helping students feel comfortable and enabling them to advocate for their sensory needs in the classroom.

    Your support has truly enhanced our learning environment, providing my students with engaging activities and the tools they need to thrive. We are incredibly grateful for your kindness and generosity.

    Thank you once again for making a positive impact on the lives of my learners. Your contribution is making a difference every day in our OT sessions!”

Through engaging and fun learning activities, I aim to make each session both enjoyable and effective. Your support will make a significant difference in helping these wonderful students thrive and reach their full potential.
