January 19, 2007, Newsletter Issue #162: BEGINNING SCISSOR EXERCISES


1

Tip of the Week


Before children begin any structured cutting tasks, let them develop a feel for scissors by allowing them to do some random cutting. Let them snip and cut small pieces of paper into smaller pieces until they are comfortable using them. I personally recommend you use the best quality childrenīs scissors you can find. Children become frustrated quickly when their scissors "donīt work" and they will not feel successful. Once they are comfortable opening and closing the blades of their scissors, have them cut along a straight line drawn on a piece of paper. Advance to a swivel line when the child is ready to "steer" their scissors. When comfortable with that the child can attempt to follow the line on a geometric shape.
