Salty Spellings

This is very short and sweet (well salty!).

I am always trying to find new ways of "conning" the boys into doing their spelling, the best so far is "drawing" them on the iPad! However this new method has been good fun this week.

First we covered the base of a tray with salt:

Then the words were written into the salt (I am sorry I can't seem to get the photo up the right way, but you get the idea!):

The boys loved this, especially shaking the tray to make the words disappear!

If we do this enough it might stop thumb sucking as the salt stayed on their hands for a while!

Thank you as always!
