Name practice

Everyday the students practice writing their names one way or another.  Here students practice using white board markers.  We emphasize that all letters start at the top.  The kids love to work those small motor muscles with play dough, wiki sticks, legos, cutting, coloring and writing.  There are many ways to build these muscles without rote practice at home and plenty more fun in the kid's eyes:  play with play dough, legos, color (as mentioned above) make bread, cookies, salads and have them help knead, shape, break and cut with your supervision, work puzzles, do a light bright, etch a sketch, and water color paint.  Have fun helping your child build these essential muscles for writing!
