Originally reviewed on TPTI love this activity. With covid-19, our students must stay at their desks and no small group activities are allowed. I gave each student their own playdough and set of letters and they choose to do it during their free time.

Originally reviewed on TPTI produced 2 sided copies of the entire alphabet and gave the students them with a page protector & a lump of dough. In the page protector was a piece of plain cardstock also so they can use one side as a “whiteboard” and the other to slide in a page of the letters at a time to practice. I put the protector into a cheap plastic pronged folder to keep that and the alphabet letters safe.
The kids are able to practice their small motor skills while learning the letter shapes during their time at home. They take pictures of their letters and send them to me through our MLS.

Originally reviewed on TPTI am an OT and I have laminated these worksheets to use with some of my students that I see each week. These are a great work activity for some of them that feel mostly like fun!

Originally reviewed on TPTThe is very cute and does have some items for Pre K, but I feel like most of the items are for older kids like Kindergarten or maybe close to the end of PreK. I think the price was set a little high and I was a little disappointed after buying it. I thought it would have more activities like the sample, but its a lot of writing and reading which most kids in Pre K are not ready for.
