Occupational Therapy Boxes

Grant - January 2022

School: Wamego Central Elementary; Wamego High School; Wamego Middle School
Subject/Area of Influence: Sensory Tools
Students Impacted: 80
Cost of Grant: $292.64

I would like to purchase a variety of materials to fill fine motor, visual perceptual, and vocational work task boxes to use with students receiving occupational therapy services, students not currently receiving services but demonstrating a need for additional support in developing these skills, and future students with these needs. I have previously purchased bundles with visual supports for these skills and I am asking for support in purchasing the necessary materials to be able to use these activities during OT sessions and loan them out to teachers for use with students for longer periods of time as they build the appropriate skills. In addition, I would like to purchase a few additional fine motor toys to use with younger students for greater engagement as they build fine motor skills. The timeline for this project is flexible as it may take multiple trips to Dollar Tree to obtain the materials and time to put the work boxes together with the visuals.
