Bug Handwriting Practice – This was page 2 and they did a fabulous job. I was especially impressed with Ali… you can barely tell who’s is who’s here which means Ali’s tracing is getting very good!
This is mostly used as letter recognition but also a little bit of writing practice as they use the sparkly bingo dobbers we have to trace the shape of the letters. Anything involving dobbers is their favorite thing to do!
Bug Mobiles - They used the dobbers to color the flowers and markers/dobbers to color the bugs. So much fun!
