Learn about Native American culture through a detailed tepee we’ll draw in November, and celebrate the coming of the winter months with a nutcracker that takes his job seriously. We’ll draw these (and may more exciting lessons!) while we enhance our fine-motor skills, learn to stay on task and follow directions, and learn the discrimination skills so critical in the classroom!
