As we develop our fine motor skills for writing, it is important to remember, little hands need lots of practise. Other activities like using large tweezers, chopsticks, screwdrivers, scissors etc can all help the muscles and muscle memory required for pencil control.
This week we put out the fabric loom which, after a slow start, has grown in popularity! The pupils have been weaving pieces of material in and out the vertical threads to create beautiful coloured patterns and designs. We are now running out of material. If anyone has any spare scraps of fabric gathering dust at home, please send it in, we would be very grateful.
