Fine Motor & Mark-Making Launchpad Online Masterclass
Inspire and motivate ALL children to develop an active interest and passion for fine motor and mark making, and create a launchpad for later writing success
"All the resources were fantastic. So useful to be able to have a go with all the resources rather than someone just showing them to you. Helps you to remember the activities. All were easily adaptable to our setting and can be set up and used straight away with resources already at school. Very good, brilliant ideas!"Angela Whittle, Teacher, Pike Fold Primary
Lifetime AccessAvailable for both whole team or individual access.
Transform reluctant mark-makers into enthusiastic writers using creativity, not expensive resources
We’ve all seen it – children who avoid the writing area, boys who show no interest in mark-making, and SEN learners who struggle with traditional fine motor activities.
Yet in every setting, there are practitioners creating writing magic with simple, inspiring activities that cost virtually nothing and captivate every child.
The secret? They understand that fine motor skills and mark-making become irresistible when they tap into children’s interests, create awe and wonder, and feel like play rather than work.
