Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I just started as an occupational therapist working in the schools. I work with students age 4-14 who may need a little extra help with their writing, fine motor coordination skills needed to manage buttons/zippers or play and/or visual perceptual skills to differentiate letters/numbers/shapes. We also work on turn taking, emotional regulation and behavior modification.

With your help, I will be able to make each and every occupational therapy session fun for the students while working on the skills they need to be successful in school.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
