Our OT team, utilizes many different applications to help student's to gain handwriting skills, fine motor dexterity, isolated finger movements, spatial relationships, hand dominance development and bilateral coordination skills. One of the other benefits of using technology is that the apps can be downloaded on a tablet and taken with you on the go. Below is a list of a few applications that could be helpful for you when working with your child/student.
