Easter is just around the corner, and if your students are
anything like ours they are certainly hopping with excitement! We put our heads
together and came up with a fun Easter themed sensory bin for our students to
enjoy this time of year.
I found a capital/lowercase letter matching game using
Easter eggs on Pinterest. All you need is 26 plastic Easter eggs in varying
colors and a sharpie. On the top part of the egg we wrote the lowercase letter
and on the bottom we wrote the capital letter.
Here is the original pin:
We tried to make sure letters that look similar were not
written on the same color egg as to help students differentiate between the
two. Once the eggs were finished we separated them and placed them in our
sensory table with lots and lots of Easter grass. Angie has used Easter grass
in her sensory table for many years and the students always love it.
Our students are having a lot of fun exploring the texture
of the Easter grass while practicing their literacy skills by matching the
letters on the eggs. This sensory bin is inexpensive, easy to clean, and easy
to create.
We hope you will try this in your classroom and let us know
the results!
