We made Scorpion’s out of straws and beads using a Q-tip to draw on the glue. Gripping the Q-tip and controlling a tracing movement is a great way to strengthen the “pincher grip.” Making our fine motor muscle tone stronger will help us to be able to prepare for the task of writing.
We were introduced to the Dung Beetle. It lives in the Sahara Desert.
The Dung Beetle uses it’s hind legs to roll the ball into it’s burrow.
We watched the Dung Beetle in it’s habitat.
After we rolled the clay into balls, we pushed it down into the burrow.
