Tactile approaches By Barb

Hi there,There are a lot of tactile ways you can reinforce spelling practice. Here are a few ideas I use: -write/trace their words in shaving cream (just spray some on their desk, smooth it out and use their finger to write...it cleans the desks too!) -You can also do this same idea with sand. -have the kids "write: the words in glue, then sprinkly on sand, glitter, rice, beans, kool-ade, jello, etc to see the words. -use wikki-stix to form the letters and practice -take a bumpy surface (sand paper, cement, etc), lay a piece of paper over it and use crayons to make rubbings. Have them write | | the words as they rub the crayon over teh surface. -Make puzzle words...write the words on tagboard or note cards and then cut them apart and make it a center activity to put the words together. -use sidewalk chalk and practice the words on teh board or outsidethe kids love these kinds of ways to practice! Have fun! Barb
