Support Fine Motor Skills In The Classroom With Clarity & Confidence
Supporting fine motor skills shouldn’t be a guessing game.
As an early educator, you already do so much to support your students' growth. But when it comes to fine motor skills, the ones children need for writing, cutting, drawing, dressing, and other daily tasks, it’s easy to feel unsure.
What’s developmentally appropriate? How do you support the kids who avoid fine motor tasks altogether? And how do you fit that support into a busy day?
You know these skills are important. But many teachers aren’t trained to understand what fine motor development looks like or how to help when a child is struggling. This can be especially challenging when you're managing different needs, limited time, and mixed-ability classrooms. That's where Fine Motor University comes in.
This easy-to-follow training provides practical strategies for preschool and pre-k teachers who want to help every student build essential skills.
