Cutting with Scissors










Today the children were cutting using the scissors. They had the old scholastic brochures, which they love to cut out their favourite books from. It is so awesome to see the concentration on their faces while cutting; a lot of children poke their tongues out while doing so, it is very cute. Cutting with scissors is great for developing fine motor skills. It is also a starting point for literacy development. Scissors are an awesome way for children to start using their hands and fingers, developing control and grip which are all things needed for holding a pen and writing. We love cutting with scissors; it is great to see the confidence in the children when they are developing their skills. The Tui Room is full of competent and capable learners.
