I found some things hanging around my studio. I
had the writing pad, that my kids no longer use. I am selling them for $2 +
shipping. I created several activities
but chose the color theme.
There´s a connection between writing and emotions.
Children learn to write the words by imitation and copying. The size of the
letters that form a color word can be managed by the correct paper.
The templates that I used are in the product
associated with my blog post.
I used a cover sheet and a purple marker for the
copying. It can be easily erased with baby wipes.
“Through repetition and practice of specific movements,
the brain and muscles learn to work together as a team,” (Conroy, 2004).
I would add that through fun repetition. I used finger paints and a
Q-tip for this one.
Make handwriting pleasant without unnecessary stress.
(Olsen, 1998).
I also found this blackboard clip board.
Children can copy the word with
chalk and then erase with a Q-tip dipped in water.
Writing stimulates attention.
Neuman
& Roskos (1992) also reported that interest in writing could be facilitated
by providing children as young as 3-years-old with the necessary tools
(pencils, crayons) and the opportunity to engage in writing.
And for engaging
tools I found my magnetic letters.
Engage the little ones in a meaningful activity
for reading. I found these French fries
boxes from Mc Donald´s. I have had them for some years, I saved them for so
many activities on Pinterest that I wanted to do. I had to save them because
there is no Mc Donald´s in town, Yes, not even one, but there is Burger King
,though. I had chalkboard duct tape, that can be cut as stickers, but I used my
border making scissors and made the labels so I can use them in further
activities.
One of the hallmarks of
skilled reading is fluent, accurate word identification (Juel, Griffith, &
Gough 1986).
For this activity I used craft sticks, wood
sticks, tongue depressor craft sticks.
And there is the letter arts and crafts for the color theme!
