Fine motor development
Please find time every day to exercise your finger muscles through a fine motor activity. Examples of fine motor activities are:
Colouring
Tracing / Dot to dots
Cutting and sticking
Threading
Playing with small toys ie, LEGO
Please scroll down for suggestions.
At school the children practise letter and number formation daily. Please continue with this as often as possible at home. I have uploaded a powerpoint letter/number formation program we use at school (please concentrate on lower case letters)
The children can use their whiteboards provided for this. At school we always listen to quiet / calming music when we do magic pencil. Please spend a realistic amount of time on these activities depending on the attention stage of your child.
