The pre-school classes a use a multi-sensory format to develop hand strength, fine motor manipulation skills, stroke development and pre-handwriting skills for children who have ready to learn handwriting or have mild delays in fine motor skills. For children with a specific disability, or significant fine motor delay, we offer private therapy sessions. For Kindergarteners and up, we offer print classes using block print or an adapted D'Nealian style print that we call "Snail Tails". The Kindergarten/First Grade class is 16 hours during the summer, and 12 sessions during the fall/spring. We offer a remedial print class that goes at a faster pace (8 sessions) with more opportunity for generalizing skills into writing, for first through 2nd graders. We have an older kids print legibility class for 2nd - 6th graders. A multi-sensory cursive class is offered using the First Strokes ® Cursive Handwriting Program developed by Jan McCleskey, MA, OTR. A multi-sensory grasp class is offered and grouped into age level groups, in order to develop a better manipulative grasp. This class is for ALL students who need to develop a better grasp pattern on a pencil - important because by 4th grade when there is students are required to write extensively, poor grasp patterns may lead to fatigue, hand pain, or slower handwriting. Grasp Class may be taken concurrently with any class - and is for 1st through 5th graders. We incorporate grasp and fine motor skills during each session for the preschool and Kindergarten/1st grade classes. We also offer a numbers class for students who reverse numbers. The clinic also has writing literacy classes and keyboarding classes. Children can attend classes without an assessment unless there is a specific disability or concern, where it would be important to do an assessment first to develop goals and objectives. We do screenings at the beginning of all classes so that the therapists can get to know your child. We also have the parents fill out a questionnaire, which helps us in programming. ...
