Moms and Dads will love their Valentine's Day cards no matter what their child's handwriting looks like--but why not motivate the students to write well?
We made Valentine's Day cards lots of different ways today--with stamps, with cut-out shapes, with recycled placements cut into hearts and glued to the card page--anything that would tap the students' needs for fine motor and handwriting remediation.
If you look closely at the center photo you'll see that the student cut out tiny placemat leftovers to form, "Mom," on his stamp. Good thing "Mom" is spelled the same from left to right and right to left...
Welcome to a spot to share ideas for working with students in exceptional education in public schools. Please describe activities you've successfully used with students to improve fine motor and self-help skills. Creative classroom adaptations for sensory-based and ergonomic needs are sought. Technology applications, low and high tech, are appreciated. Above all--be positive and professional in sharing your experiences and ideas. Thanks.
