Fin Motor Skills Development,Identification of Upper and Lower Case Letters/
Lesson Outline
The girls used fine-motor skills to create the first letter of words on their white boards. They demonstrated good coordination of small muscles in movements, and age-appropriate abilities in activities involving the synchronization of their hands and fingers. Upper and lower case letters were added to the activity to assess if they could visually discriminate differences, and both did well on this exercise. We then incorporated a rhyming activity (called "Johnny Oops") with a one-to-one number correspondence exercise that involved ten fingers on both hands. The girls appeared very responsive to this activity as it involved the repetition of sounds and rhyming words by which to incorporate and consolidate the counting skills and numeric memory that was introduced in prior sessions. We concluded the session with a counting game in which the girls had to alternate counting upward as far as their attention span would allow; both girls were able to count up to the 70's by doing so, with prompts. Once their attention began to slightly wane, the activity turned to one in which the girls drew animals and scenes on their white boards. They were then asked to identify the beginning sounds of the pictures they had depicted and to repeat them when pointed out.

Lesson Comments
Gabriella and Laina were excited to learn that we will be tracing their body on paper tomorrow - which will involve labelling body parts (to consolidate prior gains). They enjoyed discussing what outfits they would wear - with each planning on wearing a skirt or dress to school.
