Designed by an occupational therapist, this blog provides fine motor solutions to facilitate improved fine motor development and acquistion. Improved fine motor skills carry over into increased handwriting abilities and overall classroom function.
Color!
With my classroom starting a unit on colors, it's a perfect opportunity to create "color" necklaces from beads. Depending on your child's age and skill level, different sized beads may work more effectively than others. My students, who are identified being at least one year behind with their fine motor skills, will be beading with pony beads. Skill level also determines what type of string or twine you use. The smaller and bender the string the more difficult the task.
