I went to observe Cambridge Montessori School in Cambridge, MA, few years back. The school is beautiful and organized. I was able to observe the classroom of a friend, and couldn't stop raving about the activities and children. Children were so well behaved and such good listeners. I was very thankful to my friend for letting me take pictures of all those activities. The activity I am sharing with you is simple and can be done at home.
Materials - some colorful paper clips and small pieces of art paper or any kind of paper. In the image papers are cut from the edges using the zic-zag scissors.
Age - 2 and above.
Procedure - A child picks one paper and a clip out of the tray. He places the paper in front of him. Using dominant hand pincer grip, he flips 2 metal handles other side, squeeze open and clip the paper in it.
Aim - The child learns to control and balance his hand movements. It encourages concentration, independence, order and co-ordination.
ENJOY !!!
