I wrote “left” and “right” (in cursive) on two scraps of paper then taped them to the wall. Mo had to bounce and tap the paper with the correct hand but they were on her opposite side – so she had to cross midline to tape the left with her left hand and vice versa.

It was hard for her, which is usually a good sign for me that we’re on the right track doing therapy with her. 🙂

One piece fell and she taped it back up at a different height, which would be a good way to play around with this exercise. It was from Ready Bodies, Learning Minds which we use at home for occupational therapy exercises – we (and the book) call it our “Motor Lab” time.

And related to fine motor, we’re focusing on getting through some of our Cursive First book this week before we start with our spelling lists from SWR. This is Christopher’s notebook page today as he practices and this is his third day with cursive. Some of those are my sample letters, of course, but I am really amazed at how quickly both kids are picking up the cursive.

And Joseph wanted a turn after Mo, this is to note the kids in the their cute matching shirts, compliments of Katie’s boys.

And Emy wandered off during motor lab and I found this:

We work them hard around here. Poor thing, passed out with her LeapPad.
