Adults will likely have to cut out the crescent and star shapes, but younger hands should be able to help with all of the other steps! Tearing tissue paper is a great way for students to practice using both of their hands, and it is a great hand strengthening activity as well. Cutting the tissue paper is another great option to work on scissor skills. Helping to hold and squeeze a glue bottle or paint bottle is a great way to strengthen hands and practice using both hands. Coloring or painting the paper plate is a great way to practice using our &#8220;helper hand&#8221; to stabilize the plate while we paint or color with the dominant hand. This will also work on fine motor skills needed to grasp and manipulate a marker, crayon, or paint brush.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2592,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,16,36,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-186","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-bilateral-coordination","category-handwriting","category-helpful-links","category-visual-motor"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2592"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=186"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/186\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=186"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=186"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iblog.dearbornschools.org\/dandroe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=186"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
