What is Pre-School ?
It's a known fact that Every parent is worried about how will they make their toddler to start writing. Basically, we try to give them patterns to follow, such as standing and sleeping lines, curves etc; so as to write or draw. But after sometimes kids starts to feel bored with the redundancy of this process cycle and ultimately avoids writing. Meanwhile, after considering all the best ways & it's possible outcome, I went ahead with an experiment which included almost 25 kids who would be writing for the very first time as they didn't even knew how to hold a pencil etc for writing purpose. Moving ahead, I gave them shapes on paper like circle, triangle, square, etc. Then I introduced crayons to them and told them to fill colour in those shapes. Initially I first teached them how to fill colours, & how they should try, not go out of the shape.
I Gave them lots of worksheets for colouring and there choicest favorite colours.
Ultimately, the experiment worked wonders & Once they knew how to hold the crayon they automatically started to hold the pencil. So they had enough coloring practice which enabled their ability to write with patterns as some kids find it difficult to hold a pencil. Following this process will definitely help the kids and they will learn it by themselves and most importantly it will be a Fun and Learn.
I sincerely Hope this will be helpful to you as well.
