Pincer Grasp Workout Number 3
Alphabet Clothespins
I have seen many activities to work on spelling in the blogosphere.
Why not add some pincer grasp practice at the same time?
All you need are wooden clothespins and a Sharpie
...and somewhere to clip your clothespins.
(The lip of a cookie sheet works well.)
I will soon be making word cards on which Bear can clip her alphabet clothespins, similar to a See and Spell, but using clothespins as opposed to magnetic letters.

Such a simple, great idea that I've never seen anywhere else! Thanks for posting!
ReplyDeleteThose are great, I used to do an activity with these where they'd attach them to a wooden ruler to spell out thematic or sight words. Even in K it was tough for some kids to get them all lined up properly.
ReplyDeleteYou rock - I am going backward in your posts, and all the ideas are awesome. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteVery cool idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm really liking this idea - it could go in so many directions and create a lot of neat activities. Thank you!
