My Project

This project is to give my scholars the opportunity to build their Fine Motor skills in a fun and exciting way. Puzzles are the foundation for building hand muscles and coordination. We are in need of big floor puzzles that students can collaborate with and build together. The more our scholars work on those fine motor skills the better control they will have over writing materials, which will produce stronger writers. I want to say thank you so much in advance for your generosity and support, and for helping our smallest Pre-K scholars.
