<p>Developmentally Sequenced Fine Motor Activities for Preschool Children This developmentally sequenced curriculum is easy-to-implement and fun-to-use. Start to Finish has dozens of exercises that help pre-school children develop and fine-tune the motor skills they need to achieve self-confidence and success in the classroom. Seventy stimulating activities target four areas of fine motor development. These areas are normally acquired between the ages of three and five: in-hand manipulation, pencil grasp, scissors skills and grasp, and visual motor skills. Activities are carefully sequenced so that each one builds toward mastery of later activities. This ensures that all children, with different ranges of abilities, can experience success. Best of all, the activities can be implemented easily by parents, therapists, and classroom teachers. Valuable suggestions are included for improving lacing, buttoning, bead stringing, and especially cutting and folding skills. Kids have fun tracing around shapes and letters using yarn or ketchup from a plastic squeeze bottle. The curriculum includes great activities like "follow the lines," "help doggy find his bone," "help a bumblebee locate a flower," and more. Each lesson requires only limited preparation, takes 10 to 30 minutes to complete, and uses a worksheet or readily available materials. Each activity outlines the skill area, the projected goal, necessary supplies, instructions, and modifications for children who are having difficulty. Optional extension activities suggest similar tasks for children who need more practice and ways to use the completed activity in counting, shape recognition, and other educational activities.</p>
