My Students

I'm a school-based occupational therapist that works with special needs students that are 3, 4, and 5 years old in the preschool setting. My kiddos complete school-based occupational therapy activities in order to improve the following skills: visual motor, fine motor, visual perception, social skills, and sensory processing skills.

My Project

Puzzles are a great way for kids to learn in a fun way! They are so important to help kids develop finger strength, visual motor skills, and visual perceptual skills needed for play and learning.

My preschoolers who receive occupational therapy services can work 1:1 or in small groups to learn important concepts and skills such as looking at details, seeing the bigger picture, copying, body awareness, size (small to large), colors, following directions, fine motor control, perseverance, directionalities, and problem-solving skills.

Help my students to develop self-esteem to boost their confidence in the classroom!
