Sight Word Play Dough Mats
Play dough mats are a great way to practice fine motor skills while learning a variety of other skills. These particular mats can be used to help teach children high frequency words.
Although I have suggested play dough for these mats they would also work with various other sensory materials as well simply with whiteboard pens.
