Camp Superwriters

Making Handwriting Fun!

This two week camp pairs your child and another camper of similar age and needs into a dyad for intensive, but engaging, work on handwriting skills.  Groups are 1 hr. and meet 4 days per week for a 2-week period.  The camp utilizes Handwriting Without Tears® methodology along with facilitation strategies used by our OT team.  This helps develop handwriting skills through multi-sensory, play-based instruction. Children move, touch, feel and manipulate real objects as they learn the habits and skills essential for writing.
