Visual-motor integration recources and activities
SHAPE
CONSTANCY
Tasks involving completing unfinished shapes and tracing shapes play an important role in the acquisition of spatial concepts. These types of challenges stimulate the child's eye-hand coordination and strengthen visual-motor integration and fine-motor control of hand and finger movements.
When children draw the missing parts of shapes, their eyes guide the movement of their hands and fingers. When they follow the dotted lines, they simultaneously observe and compare the emerging lines with the original ones. In both types of tasks, their brains are constantly comparing the emerging lines with drawings of completed shapes and directing micro-movements of the hands and fingers to correct the direction of the emerging lines.
