Richard was seen in his room for a 45 minute treatment session today. Focus of treatment was on improving fine motor skills (hand strength, grip strength, dexterity and manipulation), visual motor integration, ocular motor skills, and graphomotor skills/keyboarding as an alternate means to written communication. Began today's session with slime sensory hand play. Continued with practicing manuscript writing to complete a Thanksgiving activity. Richard needs cues to use pencil with grip and demonstrated a much more efficient grasp pattern when using his grip. When writing, Richard takes his time and thinks to form each letter correctly. His motor memory for correct formations is not automatic at this time but he is aware of the correct formations. He continues to require cues to make the printed letters "a and n". His writing is getting neater and smaller!
Good session!
