Encourage young students to learn body awareness with Handwriting Without Tears's Mat Man curriculum. An effective way to use multisensory learning strategies rather than traditional classroom techniques, Mat Man will help special education and general education children to experiment and gain confidence with pre-writing skills.

Children sit on the floor while the teacher builds the Mat Man-a floor person made of simple wood pieces (head, arms, legs), a mat (for the body) and a few accessories (bottle caps for eyes and nose) and this hand set. The teacher then gives the mat man's parts away, which the children re-build with the teacher, and then draw. This set of hands is designed to be used with the sold-separately Handwriting Without Tears' Wood Pieces Set, Get Set for School Sing Along CD, and other elements the teacher can make from everyday materials.

This small pack contains two hands made of thick foam; each hand measures 4.25" x 5".
