When I saw this idea I thought it was absolutely brilliant. This mom AT 1,2,3...Come Homeschool With Me who home schools had her daughter practice her spelling words in a cookie sheet with baking soda on it . I thought WOW!!! That would work for me. I try to get Jeremy use as many of his senses as possible with spelling. He spells it out, says the letters out loud & now can feel it. He was sooooo excited when i showed him how he was going to review his spelling test words. Jeremy struggles with school. He tries really hard & works hard both at school & at home, but it's work for him. This year with cut backs the Learning Assistance Center was closed down & this is where Jeremy did his Language Arts & Math last year. So this year I have to be that much more hands on. So anything that can make it more fun for him, engage him more where he can get more involved I'm all over. I will for sure be checking back at 1,2,3...Come Homeschool With Me that's for sure.

How fun! I think I like the glass dish more than the baking sheet that I used. It makes a neater finished letter. Thanks for stopping by!
not to sure about that i thought the baking sheet was better...lol. no matter jeremy loved it & can't wait to do it again today. i'll be checking by again :)
fun idea!
Very cool. With many holistic benefits. The practical practice, the tactile experience, the capacity to use and reuse, the green, friendly disposal of the medium when used-up … not to mention not a single piece of paper used or tree threatened. Love it!
@ walk in the woods ~ wow you are right!!!! when done with i'll just use the baking soda to wash the bath tub it's my favorite bath tub cleaner anyways...lol. i agree about the paper, EXCEPT what am i going to do with that pile of paper i'm saving to use the blank side of now...lol.
Wonderful! I work with special needs preschoolers and we "write" in salt and shaving cream all the time. It's a great sensory activity!!
@ meeling ~ i'm just happy as he's soooo excited to work on his spelling. now if i can get him that excited to do his reading every day & i'll be happy ;)
