Building strong fine motor skills is critical for new preschool and kindergarten students as they participate in learning activities using scissors and glue sticks. In this class we will learn finger-plays to strengthen hand muscles and build coordination, we will sing songs that teach the proper grasp of scissors, and we will practice cutting along straight, curvy, and zigzag lines as well as shapes. We will learn how to open, close, and twist glue sticks as we create unique paper art. At the end of class students will have the opportunity to share their creations with the class.
