My Project

Our students are amazing kids who are eager to learn and explore their school environment and community regardless of their disabilities and language impairments. Every day, they come to school with positive attitudes.

In order to teach our students how to write so that they can succeed in the classroom and in their communities, we need to start at the very beginning with basic fine motor skills.

With supplies such as Chompin' Charlie, my students can be excited to practice their pincer grasp. With LCD pads, my students will want to practice their writing and complete their assignments. With these supplies, I can focus on developing the fine motor coordination, dexterity, grasping, and visual motor skills that we need in our everyday classroom activities (writing, cutting, manipulating items, etc.) We can change work to play!

Let's make it exciting for our kids with fun and colorful games and activities so we can develop their fine motor skills With these resources, I can develop their skills when they engage in the lessons and thrive!
