Phonic and fine motor skills can be so easy and fun! This can be used at home when you simply want your child to sit still whilst you get some chores done OR classroom phonics activity. Laminate + whiteboard pen makes it a fun and reusable resource for children. Write a word you want them to learn, have them make it with play-dough, cooked spaghetti, Lego… anything! And then write it themselves on the lines! This helps them to learn spellings, encourage their fine motor skills and write on the lines, independently. All of my students love this activity on a morning, when they first enter the classroom and need a brain warm up. in a variety on colours / styles.
