Lesson 1 - Snipping Lines

The book has children first learning to snip on different thicknesses of lines on paper. There are 2 pages of practice for each line thickness type. Snipping means that they go up from one side of the paper using the tip of the scissors. They do not have to cut all the way across the paper yet, but try to see if they can get to the star. The further they can go, the more ready they will be to cut all the way across the paper and ready to start cutting the lines in the next section.





Lesson 2 - Cutting Lines Across Pages

The next step is for children to cut all the way across the paper on straight lines of different thicknesses. There are 2 pages of practice for each line thickness type. Once they master cutting all of the straight lines, they will be ready to move to zig-zag lines.





Lesson 3 - Cutting Zig Zag Lines Across Pages

The next step is for children to cut all the way across the paper on zig-zag lines of different thicknesses. There are 2 pages of practice for each line thickness type. Once they master cutting all of the straight lines, they will be ready to move to curved lines.




Lesson 4 - Cutting Curved Lines Across Pages
