Name
Every Which Way We Move: The Essentials of Physical Development in the Preschool Classroom
Date & Time
Friday, January 26, 2024, 3:15 PM - 4:15 PM
Description
This training review explores the developmental milestones that characterize young children’s progression and acquisition of fine and gross motor skills. Fine motor skills concentrate on the development of eye-hand coordination and manipulation of small muscles involved in basic skills, such as cutting, gripping, and squeezing. Gross motor skills are more complex, incorporating a full range of movement and coordination within larger muscles involved in balancing, moving in place, taking aim, throwing, or executing a series of movements to get from one place to another. Participants will learn strategies for incorporating and integrating intentional physical development activities throughout the school day.
