Color these Halloween Friends (mummy, cat, bats, monster, ghost, owl, skeleton, vampire, spiders and witch) , write the word, and then Dab the Dots! Themed Dabber Activity worksheets are a great way to help your students with their fine motor, counting, one-to-one recognition, vocabulary and letter recognition.
Students use the BINGO Dauber, or dot markers, to press down on each circle just like BINGO players do. Alternatively, if you do not have BINGO daubers, you can use manipulatives to cover the dots like pom poms and stickers (garage sale circle stickers are fun). Or even let those little fingers dip into paint!!
