Occupational Therapy Treatment Session
Lesson Outline
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. Continued with visual scanning, visual figure ground, visual discrimination and graphomotor development with I Spy book. Richard was asked to write objects he needed to find hidden in picture. Today he chose a new picture and was able to write well although at a slow pace when provided with half highlighted lines and verbal cues for some formations. Today we reviewed the formations of the cursive letters he was previously instructed on. Taught him how the print and cursive letters are similiar yet different in formation for the groups containing "c, o , a, d, g, and q". Richard has a tendency to form these letters incorrectly in print because of an incorrect motor memory pattern. He is learning the correct way to form these letters in cursive and the anecdotes (stories) and visual cues (island) seem to help learn and retain the way to write these particular letters in cursive. Good session.
