This is a great multi-sensory pre-writing or writing activity for your students to try over the summer!

All you need is a paint brush, a bowl of water, and some concrete!

For the pre-writing students, have them scribble and color all over to promote functional grasp on the utensil. Also, having them work on creating their shapes with the water on the sidewalk! Or have them trace a chalk shape/pre-writing line!

For the older students, have them practice their letters, name, or words with the brush and water!
