I'm Back!


Now that the kids are back in the swing of things at school it’s probably a good time to reevaluate some of the skills they will need for success. With the implementation of the common core standards, not much emphasis is placed on teaching handwriting in the classroom. However, recent research supports the idea that the process of learning handwriting creates pathways in the brain that help with overall learning.


The good news is that I am available to help your child hone those fine motor skills and improve their penmanship. Write Now Handwriting and Therapeutic Services utilizes the Handwriting Without Tears program to help your child learn to write with ease and confidence. I also provide pediatric occupational therapy servicesI’m also available for small group after school sessions, camps and on-site school consultations.

Fall Classes at AJCW

This past fall I offered two classes at AJCW, an home school co-op in Skokie.  I enjoyed every minute of fun with both my preschool and school age children. As always the students improved their writing while participating in varies sensory more activities (creating taco recipes, writing in shaving cream, participating in fine motor activities, and of course making Mat Man).
