PSA! Save the thank you notes! Those sweet carefully formed signatures from students and grateful messages from parents can lift you when the going gets tough. (And the going WILL get tough at some point in your career 🙄)

If space is an issue, take photos and add them to a “happy speech day” album.

Winter sensory box for the win! Filled with soft squares of cotton batting “snow” and a variety of snowy/icy items, kids from 2-6 years are frozen in one place for at least 15 minutes! ❄️ ❄️❄️

Throw in artic cards (I use seasonal ones because I’m a little extra) and you can hit an extremely wide range of goals.

❄️ artic/phonological processing
❄️ phonemic awareness: id the first/last sound of each object or give a rhyming word
❄️ spatial concepts: pull things out and arrange them in front of/next to/behind the bin
❄️ descriptive concepts: color words, size comparisons, shapes, sparkly/squishy/hard/soft

Where do you land with sensory bins? Love or loathe them? I find this one a little easier because the “snow” isn’t as messy as beans or other tiny objects. Plus it’s much lighter—key for me who works out of a rolling bag.

Perfect practice! We’re working on winter vocabulary and verbs but the answer is always “the snowman!” Setting up activities where children have lots of success is the key to motivation and learning.

Start thinking beyond color words! This simple activity—dropping colored sticks into slots—is intended for color matching and fine motor practice. For me it’s an opportunity to work on S blends (one of the most common phonological processing goals) and early language.

When to focus on the color names? To expand your artic/phono trials to phrase level or if you have a child with a preferred interest in naming colors.

Ready, set, go! Think of one child you know who would like this activity. Comment with the target(s) words you’d focus on.
