I also have them stamp sight words into the playdough-you can use any stamps not just special playdoh stampers. Or how about using alphabet cookie cutters to have kids cut letters out of playdoh to make sight words. They could even use playdoh to illustrate addition and subtraction problems. Playdoh is also great when they are learning the letters in their name-have them practice making their name out of playdoh for morning work!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494849868073451460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7234024955852186014.post-24760127305354247802012-01-06T10:12:32.311-06:002012-01-06T10:12:32.311-06:00I am not allowed to use play dough in my classroom...I am not allowed to use play dough in my classroom because I was told it "wasn't challenging enough for my students" does anyone have any suggestions for ways I could incorporate play dough in a "challenging way" to make my administration happy and still give my students the fine motor development that they need?ddeluciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07828477957136990109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7234024955852186014.post-59898868985369106822011-10-17T21:41:12.437-05:002011-10-17T21:41:12.437-05:00That is so funny, I pulled out empty play-doh cans...That is so funny, I pulled out empty play-doh cans and used them for the exact same thing last week!
