They usually make something - so it could be drawing, painting, cutting out, colouring in, glueing, doing a basic maze or dot to dot etc. ... But he is not saying he doesn't enjoy the school tasks, just that he has more fun learning at home...
You know, my son, and a lot of others, lost out on a lot of hand training at this age because the jobs were 'perfect' or 'interesting' enough. I think it's wonderful that your son isn't complaining and is getting the hours and hours of skill building that is probably just right for his physical needs. Plus he is having fun doing more intellectually challenging stuff at home - it sounds 'all good' to me.
