Students will learn exercises and fun activities they can do daily to help them gain hand strength. Hand strength is important for adequate writing skills, cutting skills, and self care. The students and I will do hand and finger exercises together, play games, and do activities that involve moving muscles of the hand. They will be having so much fun, they won't even realize they are exercising! I enjoy using a multi-sensory approach to learning, so I will use songs, tactile manipulatives, visuals, and movement. There will a hand out with a list of the exercises for you to reference after the class in order to continue on your own.
Learning Goals
Students will learn exercises and activities they can complete daily to gain hand strength while having fun! Younger students may need the support of a parent to follow along.

I am trained as an Occupational Therapist. I have come across so many children that could use a little extra support, whether they qualify for services or not. That is why I put together this class and others like it. I hope this class will be helpful for ALL children and give extra ideas for things you can continue to do at home. Please note that this is not a therapy session, as I have not evaluated your child and do not know specific areas they may be struggling with. I will be teaching students general exercise and fun activities to target hand and finger strength. Participation in this class can benefit all learners but should be taken with parent support and supervision as needed. If your child has significant deficits, weakness, or loss of muscle tone, it is best to consult with their Pediatrician for advice and treatment options.
