My Project

We are always looking for fun ways to keep the learning going for our students when they aren't with us. Summer break will be here before we know it, and we want to make sure that our students don't lose the skills they have worked so hard on during this school year.

The majority of our students will move on to Kindergarten where there will be lots of cutting, writing, and other fine motor activities.

We want to make sure they are ready! These fun books will help provide opportunities to keep practicing. Each student will receive activity books to take home. One focuses on scissor skills, one comes with rolls of colored tape that they tear to make and decorate fun scenes, and the last uses water to make painting pages. They are going to love these, and their fine motor skills will really improve. Thank you so much for helping us provide these for our students!
