Here is a shot of Mena doing her sandpaper letters. I first ask her to find the "m" out of the four letters at the top, I do this with each of these letters. She traces each letter with her finger and says the letter sound and then uses her sand tray to draw the letters. I then introduced the letter tray which at the oment has all objects of colors that start with that sound. I found a couple, then we walked around the room and found some together. These activities are now on the shelf for her to choose from. I plan to add obects for each of the letters but she was done with school for the day!
Here are two shots of Mena playing in her sensory bucket. I noticed she wanted to play in the sand when she traced her letters so I immediatly created this sensory bucket for her to play in. She loved it. I filled it with beans, rice, and mini marshmallows. I added some measuring cups and such for her to scoop and pour. It worked out well.
