| fine motor skills practice: The First 20 Hours Josh Kaufman, 2013-06-13 Forget the 10,000 hour rule— what if it’s possible to learn the basics of any new skill in 20 hours or less? Take a moment to consider how many things you want to learn to do. What’s on your list? What’s holding you back from getting started? Are you worried about the time and effort it takes to acquire new skills—time you don’t have and effort you can’t spare? Research suggests it takes 10,000 hours to develop a new skill. In this nonstop world when will you ever find that much time and energy? To make matters worse, the early hours of practicing something new are always the most frustrating. That’s why it’s difficult to learn how to speak a new language, play an instrument, hit a golf ball, or shoot great photos. It’s so much easier to watch TV or surf the web . . . In The First 20 Hours, Josh Kaufman offers a systematic approach to rapid skill acquisition— how to learn any new skill as quickly as possible. His method shows you how to deconstruct complex skills, maximize productive practice, and remove common learning barriers. By completing just 20 hours of focused, deliberate practice you’ll go from knowing absolutely nothing to performing noticeably well. Kaufman personally field-tested the methods in this book. You’ll have a front row seat as he develops a personal yoga practice, writes his own web-based computer programs, teaches himself to touch type on a nonstandard keyboard, explores the oldest and most complex board game in history, picks up the ukulele, and learns how to windsurf. Here are a few of the simple techniques he teaches: Define your target performance level: Figure out what your desired level of skill looks like, what you’re trying to achieve, and what you’ll be able to do when you’re done. The more specific, the better. Deconstruct the skill: Most of the things we think of as skills are actually bundles of smaller subskills. If you break down the subcomponents, it’s easier to figure out which ones are most important and practice those first. Eliminate barriers to practice: Removing common distractions and unnecessary effort makes it much easier to sit down and focus on deliberate practice. Create fast feedback loops: Getting accurate, real-time information about how well you’re performing during practice makes it much easier to improve. Whether you want to paint a portrait, launch a start-up, fly an airplane, or juggle flaming chainsaws, The First 20 Hours will help you pick up the basics of any skill in record time . . . and have more fun along the way. |

| fine motor skills practice: The Promise of Adolescence National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education, Board on Children, Youth, and Families, Committee on the Neurobiological and Socio-behavioral Science of Adolescent Development and Its Applications, 2019-07-26 Adolescenceâ€beginning with the onset of puberty and ending in the mid-20sâ€is a critical period of development during which key areas of the brain mature and develop. These changes in brain structure, function, and connectivity mark adolescence as a period of opportunity to discover new vistas, to form relationships with peers and adults, and to explore one's developing identity. It is also a period of resilience that can ameliorate childhood setbacks and set the stage for a thriving trajectory over the life course. Because adolescents comprise nearly one-fourth of the entire U.S. population, the nation needs policies and practices that will better leverage these developmental opportunities to harness the promise of adolescenceâ€rather than focusing myopically on containing its risks. This report examines the neurobiological and socio-behavioral science of adolescent development and outlines how this knowledge can be applied, both to promote adolescent well-being, resilience, and development, and to rectify structural barriers and inequalities in opportunity, enabling all adolescents to flourish. |

| fine motor skills practice: The Ultimate Guide to Homeschooling Boys Michelle Caskey, 2015-07-11 Need Help Homeschooling Your Boys? If you have a son, you already realize that he is much different than your daughters... but you may not realize that your son actually sees differently, hears differently, and even THINKS differently. Having a son can be confusing for moms. Homeschooling a son can be even more difficult. Often, girls are content to let you hand them a book or a workbook to teach them. Boys, on the other hand, do not normally learn well in this manner. In fact, most boys will confront you with all out rebellion if you try to conduct their homeschooling in this way. So, how should we homeschool boys? Fortunately, there are some simple answers to this question. Michelle candidly details the ups and downs of homeschooling her own sons. She gives practical advice for how to educate boys while enjoying a closer relationship with them at the same time. Boys do enjoy learning when it is approached in the right way. Grab your coffee and settle in for some laughs, some tears, and a huge helping of inspiration. About the Author: Michelle has been married to her best friend for almost 17 years. She is also a homeschool mom to her two wonderful (and tall) sons. Michelle is a Christian, a fan of simple living and a lover of chocolate. She loves her spicy chai tea in the morning and she has a hard time staying out of the snacks at night. You can find her blogging at www.homeschool-your-boys.com. Her mission is to encourage and inspire parents as they homeschool their boys. |

| fine motor skills practice: Fine Motor Activities Adriana Olabi, 2012-08-01 Fine motor skills are absolutely necessary for a normal child to develop the abilities to perform different activities. The period of pre-school is the stage in the child's life when transition from dependence to autonomy takes place. The child's learning process is unconscious and continuous, so at this age, he should not be deprived of experiencing through various activities in the classroom or at home. Weakness in fine motor skills affects a child's ability to perform simple tasks such as eating, coloring, brushing teeth, etc, which lowers his confidence and independence. |
