Why is fine motor practice important? Many of our Pre-K, Kindergarten, and 1st grade students come to us without the essential fine motor skills needed for writing. It’s so important to build those fine motor muscles, but it can be difficult to fit fine motor activities into your day! These CVC fine motor mats help you integrate fine motor practice with academics.
How many CVC words are included? There are at least 180 CVC words included for each fine motor mat type. That’s over 1000 mats included total!
How can I use these in Kindergarten literacy centers or word work? Just print, add to a sheet protector or laminate, and add manipulatives! You can also use these as small group warm up activities, early finisher activities, or send home for extra practice.
How can I use these in Kindergarten morning tubs or morning bins? Just print, add to a sheet protector or laminate, and add manipulatives! If you do not want to bend the mats, I suggest having paper-size tubs or book bins for these morning bins.
