1. Stringing Beads-I
Eye-Hand integration, control, 2-3 years
Fine Motor, two-hand coordination, 2-3 years
Goal :To improve eye-hand integration and cooperative use of hand.
Objective :To slide to beads onto a tinkertoy stick while holding the stick
with one hand
Materials :Tinkertoys , beads
Procedure :Make a spindle by attaching a tinkertoy stick to a wheel so that the
wheel lies flat on the table with the stick pointing straight up in the
air. Give ruth a bead (make sure that the bead fits on the stick) and
guide her hand to slide it onto the stick. Take a second bead and
hold it so she can clearly see the hole. Then give her the bead and
say “ put it on”. As you point to the stick. Help her only as much
necessary. When two beads on without your assistance. When a
second spindle. This time try to get her to place both beads on
without your assistance. When she can easily place the beads on the
stick when the wheel is sitting flat on the table, help her to hold the
spindle in one hand while guiding the bead onto the stick with the
other. At first you will have to guid both her hand, but as she learns
to hold the spindle off the table you can reduce your assistance.
Repeat the activity until she can pick up the spindle and place two
beads on it by herself.
2. Stringing Beads-II
Eye Hand integration, control, 2-3 years
Fine Motor, two-hand coordination, 2-3 years
Goal :To improve eye-hand integration and cooperative use of hand.
Objective :To string two beads on pipe cleaner without assistance.
Materials :Pipe cleaners , beads
Procedure :Once ruth can string to beads on a solid object like a tinkertoy
spindle (see activity 129), switch to slightly more flexible but still
rigid object such as a pipe cleaner. Demonstrate for her how to hold
the pipe cleaner in one hand use the other hand to pick up the beads
and slide them onto the pipe cleaner. Then give ruth a pipe cleaner
and help her to grasp it firmly with one hand. Help her to push the
beads onto the pipe cleaner. When she has palced both beads
property, set the materials aside and reward her,. Reduce your
assistance as she learns what is expected of her.
3. Stringing Beads-III
Eye-Hand integration, control, 2-3 years
Fine Motor, two-hand coordination, 2-3 years
Goal :To improve eye-hand integration and cooperative use of hand.
Objective :To string five beads on on a knotted shoelace without assistance.
Materials :Shoelace (or any long thin piece of string or leather), beads
Procedure :Once Ruth can string to beads on a pipe cleaner without assistance
(see activity 130), switch to a flexible item like a shoelace. Tie a
knot in one end of the shoelace so that the beads will not slide off
the other end when they are strung. Demonstrate first how to slide a
beads onto shoelace. Make sure ruth is watching while you
demonstrate. Then guide her to hold the shoelace in one hand and a
bead in the other. Help her to place the tip of the lace through the
hole in the bead and then move her hands to grasp the tip as it come
trough the hole and slide down to the knot. Repeat the activity until
five beads are on the shoelace. At first you will have to continue to
guide her through the activity. Remember that she has to learn what
each hand should do individually bebefore she can learn to use
them cooperatively. Repeat the activity until she can string five
beads without assistance.
4. Clothespins
Eye-Hand integration, control, 2-3 years
Fine Motor, manipulation, 2-3 years
Five Performance, Matching, 3-4 years
Goal :To improve direction of an object to a target, matching skills, and
hand strength.
Objective :To attach six clothespins to designated spots on a can
Materials :Six plastic clothespins (different colors if possible), can.
Procedure :Ken can attach clothespins to a box witout assistance (see activity
111), begin teaching him to put the pins on specific spots on the
outside of a can. Draw six stars around the outside, close enough
to the top so that he can put the clothespins directly on the stars
(see figure 5.5). if you are also using the activity as a colour
matching task, have the stars correspond to the colors of the
clothespins. Give ken a clothespin, point to one of the stars, and say
“put it on”, if he tries to put the pin elsewhere on the can, point to
the star again and repeat the words, “put it on”. If he still seems
confused, guide his hand to the star. When he can attach all six
clothespis on the stars without assistance, occasionally say “put it
on”, but do not provide the gestural clue. See if he can search for an
empty star and attach the clothespin to it.
6. Tingkertoys
Eye-Hand integration, control, 3-4 years
Fine Motor, manipulation, 3-4 years
Goal :To improve eye hand integration and to learn appropriate use of
play materials.
Objective :To make a simple construction out of three tingkertoys
Materials :Tingkertoys
Procedure :Make sure mark is watching you and make a simple construction
out of three tingkertoy pieces. Set your model aside and place three
similar pieces in front of mark. Help him to copy your model by
lightly controlling his hands. Praise him and place his construction
alongside your model. Place another three pieces in front of him and
help him to put the first two pieces together. Gesture for him to put
the third pieces on by himself. Help him only if the seems confused.
When he can add the third pieces without your assistance, have him
put all three pieces together himself. Finally, as he becomes skilled
at the task, gradually increase the number of pieces (see figure 5.6).
Remember that to many pieces in front of him before he is ready
will cause him to become disorganized.
7. Molding Play-Doh-I
Eye-Hand integration, control, 3-4 years
Fine Motor, two–hand coordination,, 3-4 years
Perception, visual, 3-4 years
Motor, 3-4 years
Goal :To improve eye hand integration and develop the ability to copy
objects.
Objective :To copy three common objects using play-Doh
Materials :Play-Doh, three common objects with simple shape (for example,
ball, bowl, and block)
Procedure :Sit with Brian at the table. Place the three objects to be copied to
one side of the table and six large pieces of Play-Doh on the other
side. Place one of the object and two pieces of Play-Doh in front of
brian. Name the object to be copied and make sure that he looks at
it. If you are copying the bowl, say “ look, brian, bowl”. When you
have his attention, make a bowl out of one of the pieces of Play-
Doh. Put your bowl next to the original. Then point to the second
pieces of Play-Doh and say “Brian, make bowl”.If he makes no
move to mold the clay, take his hands and get him started. If he
does not seem to understand that he is to make a bowl, continue to
help him shape the clay into the proper shape. When the second
bowl is finished, put it next to the model and the first clay bowl and
say “bowl”. Reward him immediately and repeat the procedure
with the other objects.
8. Molding Play-Doh-II
Eye-Hand integration control, 3-4 years
Fine Motor, two hand coordination, 3-4 years
Perception Visual, 3-4 years
Motor, 3-4 years
Goal :To improve eye hand integration, learn appropriate use of play
materials, and develop the ability to reproduce copies of two-
dimensional representations.
Objective :To mold plai-doh into simple shapes represented by picture.
Materials :Play-Doh, pictures of three common objects brian is familiar with
the pictures may be clearly, hand drawn or cut out of magazines
and, if possible, should represent the same object used in molding
Play-Doh-I (see activity 135)
Procedure :When Brian can consistenly mold Play-Doh into copies of objects
when the actual objects are present, use pictures of the same object
to teach him to reproduce two dimensional representation. Place two
pieces of Play-Doh and a picture in front of Brian. Name the object
in the picture just as you named it when using the object it self.
Make sure he is looking at the picture. Say “look, brian, bowl” and
direct his attention to the picture. Than take a piece of Play-Doh and
make a bowl out of it. Point to the second place of Play-Doh and say
“brian, make bowl”, if he seems confused, take his hands and get
him started. Put the second bowl next to the finished bowl and the
picture. Point to the entire group and say “bowl”. Reward him
immediately and repeat the procedure with the other two pictures.
9. Parts of A Whole
Eye-Hand integration control, 3-4 years
Fine Motor, manipulation, 3-4 years
Perception, Visual, 3-4 years
Goal :To recocnize the relationship of part to a whole and assemble part
correctly to form the whole object.
Objective :To assemble the part of a two-piece picture without assistance.
Materials :Colored paper, white paper, crayons, scissors, paste.
Procedure :Cut pairs of simple shapes from colored paper which, when put
together, form on object that eddie recognizes easily (see figure
5.7A). Draw a solid line down the middle of a large sheet of plain
white paper. On one side of the line assemble a model of the object
from the pieces and paste it into the paper (see figure 5.7 B). Give
Eddie the two parts of the picture and the show him how to
assemble them on the blank side of the paper to correspond to the
model. Make sure he is watching as you put the pieces together.
Name the object and than take the two pieces apart again. Have
him then assemble the same two part. If he seems confused, help
him to rotate the part until they fit together properly.
Then paste the pieces on the paper. Hang the picture in his room to
show him that you are proud of his achievements. As the task
become easy for him, expand the pictures to three or four parts.
Figure 5.7 suggested picture to cut and reassemble.
10. Tongs
Eye-Hand integration control, 3-4 years
Fine Motor, manipulation, 3-4 years
Perception, Visual, 1-2 years
Goal :To improve eye hand integration, fine motor control, and the
ability to move objects to targets.
Objective :To pick up six small items with tongs and put them in the cups of
an egg carton..
Materials :Small flexible tong, eeg carton, small object (such as spools,
blocks, beads, etc)
Procedure :Scatter two or three small objects on the table in front of Andy.
Place the bottom half of in egg carton on the table (see figure 5.8).
Say “look, andy” and show him how to open and close the tongs.
When you are sure he is watching you, use the tongs to pick up one
of the objects and move it to an empty cup in the egg carton.
Release the object into the cup by opening the tongs. Then give
andy the tongs and help him to position his hand properly. Place
your hand over his to guid him. With your other hand, point to one
of the object on the table and say “put it on”. Help him to control
the tong to pick up the object and release it into an egg cup. In the
early stages of the activity you will also have to the point to an
empty egg cup so he knows where to put the object. At first he will
probably only be able to pick up one or two pnects. Scatter only as
many objects as you think he can pick up. Andy must know how
many times he must perform in in order not to become frustrated.
Relax your control of his hand as you feel him beginning to control
the tongs by himself. Also, as he becomes more used to the task,
say “put it in” but do not point to a specific egg cup. See if he can
locate an empty cup and release the object on target without your
guidance.
