I just love to use balls for teaching students. It's a great way to accommodate and engage your kinesthetic and tactile learners, and it always brings the fun factor into your lesson! I often purchase beach balls at the dollar store and use permanent markers to write down different, reading, writing, grammar, and math concepts. Here are a few things that I use balls for:
- parts of speech
- multiplication
- touch math
- vowel combinations
- types of sentences
- letters
- blending
- writing prompts
But for those of you who would like to buy ready made options, I just came across these nifty products on Amazon. I included the links below.
If you use balls for other lessons, please share your ideas.
Cheers, Erica
