Fine Motor Skills

•6 Lessons
This unit introduces Nursery students to fundamental fine motor control through carefully sequenced hand and finger activities. By framing hands and fingers as 'clever tools' and 'clever robots', the unit makes skill development playful and accessible whilst building essential dexterity needed for future writing, self-care and creative tasks. The progression from simple object control to precise threading activities ensures developmentally appropriate challenge.
