This educational activity is designed for pre-school children (ages 4) to learn how to write their names. A comfortable learning environment with appropriately sized chairs and tables is crucial for the success of this activity. Students, who have prior knowledge of manuscript letter formation, will engage in kinesthetic and cognitive skill development. Using imitation and observational learning techniques, children will observe and replicate others in writing their names. This method fosters a love for learning and builds foundational skills for becoming successful readers and writers.
