Teaching tips & learning objectives
Teaching tips
Using a fingertip instead of a cotton bud turns the same pages into finger-isolation practice, as the activity ideas page suggests.
Writing target letters or numbers into some circles changes a page into a find-and-dot recognition task.
Skills covered
Fine motor control — dotting inside each circle of the outlined pictures
Finger isolation — dotting with a single fingertip
