Scissor Practice Print-Out
These cutting strips are perfect for teaching proper grip on scissors and cutting technique. Start by cutting them into strips on the dotted lines. I LOVE my Staples Paper Cutter for straight lines like this. It’s fast and easy. (*update* my Amazon Basics Paper Cutter is a lot better – the Staples one didn’t last long)
Miss 3 loves anything to do with cutting and she gets pretty serious about it! She likes to go back over the shapes she cuts to make sure they don’t have any ridged edges. She has quickly developed a proper grip (although her scissors are upside down here!) with her thumb up toward the ceiling.
She enjoyed coloring the pieces before cutting them and then she glued them to construction paper.
She got a sticker toward her reward chart for doing scissor practice. This is an awesome resource for practicing cutting.
You can print it on colored cardstock for more fun! I find the cardstock is easier for the littles to cut because it doesn’t flop over like regular paper does.
