K-4 through 3rd graders are welcome to register for this special summer camp:
This camp offers kids help with manuscript/print handwriting. It is designed for children who have completed K4 through third grade who need extra practice developing letter formations and handwriting skills. Each day, children will be engaged in a mixture of gross motor and fine motor activities to teach and reinforce the learning of letter formations.
Our handwriting camp is staffed by Master’s and Doctoral
level Occupational Therapy students and supervised by professors of
Occupational Therapy specializing in pediatrics. Occupational Therapy is a
profession focusing on helping individuals participate and function in the
activities meaningful to them (occupations).
This camp utilizes hands-on, multi-sensory
approaches to teach concepts and reach children with all learning styles.
Children of all abilities are welcome! If
your child has specialized learning needs, please inform us at the time of
registration for planning purposes.
The handwriting camp was developed as an
educational opportunity for Occupational Therapy students at Concordia
University and is a required part of their pediatric coursework. Camp is
provided as a free service to our community.
