One of the objectives of our Pre-K curriculum is to build the children's fine motor skills. Lots of practice with scissors and crayons will strengthen the muscles needed for handwriting, which begins in Kindergarten. Everyday the teachers look for opportunities to bring fun manipulatives into the classroom for this purpose.
This week's parsha study presents a great opportunity to work on fine motor skills. The children are weaving baskets for baby Moshe, using dried grasses and berry baskets. It's actually quite challenging!
