S.M.A.R.T. NEWSLETTER - March '21 IN-PERSON LEARNING

We are always looking for ways to combine skills, so when one S.M.A.R.T. OT, Sarah, shared this video from Its Totally Therapy, we knew we had to share it! Sarah has the students cut the squares and hole punch them to work on their fine motor skills before they begin the Eye Activities.

​Materials needed: paper, scissors, hole punch, straw

1. Cut paper into strips.
2. Cut strips into squares.
3. Hole punch the middle of the square.
4. Gently bite the straw.
5. Pick up a square using your pointer finger and thumb.
6. Watch each square as you slide it all the way onto the straw. (convergence)
7. Watch each square as you slide it all the way off the straw. (divergence)
