My Project

Hello, My students are fantastic little learners. My students enjoy hands on materials when it comes to fine motor activities. Learning letters given tactile medium helps the student have a fun way to write and remember the letters. Pencil grips will help give the student a good start on how to hold a pencil correctly. The string along board will help given feedback and input when forming letters or making a picture. The light box/sand table will give different textures and a new way to make writing fun. All the items will help keep the students learning and engaged in participating in everyday tasks in a fun way!
