My students are in need of a Play-Doh learning center filled with educational hands on tools that can be used to foster creativity, literacy and math skills. My students can use Play-Doh to create a variety of things such as forming letters, numbers, shapes, and creating animal shapes and so much more. I have students who has challenges holding their crayon or pencil correctly and have difficulties cutting with a proper scissor grasp. Allowing students to explore with Play-Doh can help strengthen and improve fine and bilateral motor skills. The muscle we use to hold a pencil are the same muscles used when playing with Play-Doh. Young children need to build their fine motor strength and control and time exploring Play-Doh will help give those small hands a good workout. Through squishing, pushing, pulling, twisting and cutting this would help my students gain strength in their hands while enjoying an important multi sensory activity. Play-Doh would also allow my students to be creative, use their imaginations and talk about their creations, which would help them build their oral language skills. Play-Doh would be a huge asset to my classroom.
