thought i would share an activity that i do with the group of dyslexic children i work with. i squirt shaving foam on a large tray and spread it to cover the entire surface, the child then uses his writing finger to write the word or letter blend we are working on. the children enjoy this activity a lot and don't realise that they are learning as they feel it is play and a treat at the end of a session.This a multi sensory way of teaching as the children feel the foam and often comment on the smell as well which hopefully they can remember when writing the word in their books using the more tradional way.
