✨Turkey Run Elementary School Fine Motor Fun & Marvel vs. DC Dress-Up Day! ✨

Our Life Skills Class learners had a fun-filled day of learning, playing, and showing off their superpowers!

We worked those little fingers with fun fine motor activities designed to help strengthen hand muscles, improve hand-eye coordination, and build skills needed for writing, cutting, buttoning, and other everyday tasks. Learning through play is always more fun! And they did all of this while costumed up in their Marvel vs. DC outfits for College Go Week!

What a SUPER day of learning and fun!
