Project Summary
The objective of this project was to purchase Occupational Therapy materials targeting the development of the following skills: Gross Motor skills, Fine Motor skills, Visual and Spatial Perceptual skills and Sensory processing skills. With the acquisition of these materials, therapists were able to use different multi sensory approaches to further enhance the scholastic development of I Can’s students.
Project Overview
The Occupational Therapy materials were purchased online through the Temu website, and I Can received them during the month of July. The therapists only started using them as from August after school’s resumption for the Third Term of the academic year 2024. This timing allowed the therapists to integrate the new materials into their daily activities, ensuring that the materials are utilised to support the students’ therapeutic needs.
