Task 1 - We will observe how humans use their hands. Do we hold all objects in the same way? Share with the class how many different ways you can hold different objects with one hand. List them in the journal.
List of different ways of holding different objects with one hand:
1. Picking up objects smaller than the surface of the finger (e.g. rice grains):
-Pressing the surface of the thumb and index finger together with the object held between.
2. Holding light, rod-like objects (e.g. pencil, pen, straw)
-Pressing the thumb and index finger on opposite sides of the object.
(Can be done with the thumb and any number of the rest of the fingers)
(Can be done with the thumb and any number of the rest of the fingers)
3. Holding thin, flat objects (e.g. paper, books)
-Pressing the thumb on one of the flat sides and any number of the rest of the fingers on the opposite side.
4. Holding objects bigger than the palm (e.g. a pole, waterbottle)
-Resting the palm against the object and wrapping the fingers firmly around the object.
Task 2 - Reach out one of your hand to hold a water bottle or a pencil case or any object that you can wrap your fingers round. Observe how you are holding the object. Record these observations in detail both in words and also in drawing.
-Refer to Task 1 (4). I put my palm around the object and used my fingers to wrap it. In this case I used all 5 digits.
