Occupational therapists address a whole host of functional issues that have a big impact on school performance. From fine motor skills, to handwriting and self-regulation, OTs can provide strategies that will help your students be more active and successful participants in class. Our fine motor handouts will help students build their hand strength and coordination, making art skills, writing, dressing and active play easier. And like all strengthening activates, the more you do them, the better! OTs also provide ideas to help students self-calm using a sensory-based approach that actually helps their brains regulate more effectively, improving focus, behavior and attention.
