Fine Motor Skills

 

We spend time at school strengthening our fingers with fine motor activities, you might have noticed these activities are usually out first thing in the morning.

 

We try to use tweezers, thread beads and improve our cutting skills. Our classes favourite fine motor activity is play dough. This is great for making fingers work.
