*Sticker Shapes are also in the Foundations of Fine Motor Pack
Description: Embark on a geometric adventure with the "Sticker Shapes" resource—a captivating and tactile method for engaging preschoolers in shape recognition and early geometry skills. Each page features four shapes, each housed in its own box, covering a variety of shapes including heart, triangle, rectangle, circle, star, oval, rhombus, square, hexagon, octagon, pentagon, and crescent.
How to Use:
Print and Cut: Select the pages you need, print them, and then cut out the individual shape boxes for distribution to students.
Sticker Application: Provide students with a variety of stickers. They will outline each shape with stickers, turning this into a fine motor skill-enhancing activity.
Texture Exploration: Once outlined, the stickers create a bumpy texture on each shape. Students can trace their fingers over this texture, saying the shape's name out loud and discussing its properties, reinforcing shape recognition and spatial awareness.
Educational Benefits:
Enhances Fine Motor Skills: Handling stickers and placing them accurately fosters hand-eye coordination.
Promotes Shape Recognition: Students learn to identify and differentiate various shapes.
Supports Early Geometry Skills: Encourages understanding of shapes and their characteristics through repetitive saying and tracing.
Sensory Learning: The tactile feedback from the bumpy texture aids in sensory integration, beneficial for all learners.
