Includes:
Tweezers measure 4''L
Grades: Toddler +
Learning Style: Tactile
Skill Development:
Fine Motor- As students pick up objects with the tweezers, they are working on motor planning and eye-hand coordination (visual-motor integration) and refining the manual skills needed for writing, drawing and daily living.
Sensory Integration- Students who are hypersensitive to textures can participate in tactile play using tweezers to hold and move objects.
Self-Help- Incorporate puppet-like conversations to enhance communication and social interactions. Gator (tweezers) can speak to or try to gobble up the other person, increasing direct contact with another.
