My Project

Let's explore! I wonder what will happen next? How many blocks did we stack? Why do you think they tipped over? Do you think the blue car will go faster than the pink car? Why?

Help our PK-2nd grade students practice their occupational therapy skills while engaging in STEM activities.

Students will work with various resources to help answer STEM related questions, as well as work on learning objectives necessary for building and strengthening fine motor skills. We are excited to incorporate the items into our STEM OT kits; as well as adding a STEM center a table/ cube chair for our pre-school students to manipulate materials for cutting, learning, and problem-solving: puzzles, shape sorter, magnetic tiles with cars, threading kits, and materials for cutting.

A little about our Alaska village: Savoonga - we are located on St. Lawrence Island, closer to Russia than the mainland of Alaska. Our students come from families that practice subsistence hunting and gathering which means the they enjoy playing outside - pretending to be out boating, hunting, and fishing. During colder winter months they continue play pretend, explore, learn, and grow. Students are Siberian Yupik and enjoy Atuq (drumming and dancing).

STEM activities are found naturally throughout the culture by having to make drums from wood, skins, and string to determining how to bring large marine catch up onto shore. Students participate in these activities as community multiple times a year. Our students with special needs need the fine motor skills practice to be able to participate in cultural activities. These activities requested would significantly enhance student skills.
