Fine Motor Spring Camp in April/May 2020

A four week fun and interactive camp for children in grades 1 - 3 who find printing
or other fine motor activities challenging. The camp will be run by an experienced
pediatric occupational therapist. A multi-sensory approach will be used along with
co-operative games and crafts to practice the skills needed for hand functioning.
This camp is designed for children who may be experiencing mild to moderate
delays in fine motor development or who would benefit from extra practice.
The camp places an emphasis on grasp development, formation of lower case
letters, legible printing, copying shapes and letters, using school tools (pencils,
scissors, glue), in hand manipulation skills, eye hand coordination and strength.
This includes a summary report identifying individual children's strengths, areas
of need, and suggestions for further skill development will be provided.
This camp will use a multi-sensory approach combining fine and gross motor
movement to enhance learning. Parents are encouraged to attend the first of the
four sessions in order to help their child feel more at ease in the group and to
learn how to support their child with printing practice at home.

Days: April 18, 25, May 2, 9 (4 sessions)
Time: Printing Basics: 10:00 am - 11:15 am
Cost: $275.00
