Fine Motor ABC

April 4, 2017 by lauraschachter@gmail.com

Fine Motor ABC is an essential resource for parents and teachers. It is an engaging and easy-to-implement resource. Use alphabet activities to strengthen fine motor skills.

Fine motor activities are so important for young children. If you follow my blog, you know that I am a huge believer in learning through play. Almost all of my learning activities contain some hands-on aspect, so that children are able to access information through kinesthetic learning.

So, I was delighted when I was asked to review the book Fine Motor ABC. Fine Motor ABC is an amazing book written by Stacie Erfle, MS, OTR/L. Fine Motor ABC includes an alphabet themed activity for every letter of the alphabet and each activity is designed to strengthen fine motor skills.

Portable Word Wall Station

March 30, 2017 by lauraschachter@gmail.com

How to make your own portable word wall station. Use a tri-fold board and plastic hooks. Easy!

Portable word walls are fantastic. They help make words accessible to students in so many ways. Kids are able to physically hold and the words or word lists and the words can travel with them.

By using portable word walls, children bring the words right to their work space. I wanted to create a portable word wall station that is quick and easy to make. While also being space saving and user-friendly in the classroom.
