Salt Fall Writing Tray Handwriting Practice

Salt Fall Writing Tray Fine Motor Activity is a great way to support handwriting practice. Salt writing trays give kids an opportunity to practice handwriting skills without added pressure of a pencil grip. The Leaves Literacy task cards used in the activity are a part of my Fall Literacy bundle and are available in my store.

We have created this salt tray by using fall colors on the tray, but this is definitely an activity you could use any time during the year to work on literacy, letter and name recognition with your students. This project is a great activity to use during STEM block and to practice fine motor skill in the classroom.

Salt Fall Writing Tray Handwriting Practice- How to:

Making a salt tray is super easy! Take salt as per the size of the tray. The salt shoudl be enough to spread out across the tray. Put the salt in a ziplock bag, add food coloring, in this case I used orange color. Zip the bag up and start smooshing the salt to mix the food coloring well with the salt.
Once all the color has evenly coated the salt, pour the colored salt in a tray to dry up. It may take a few hours for it to dry and get ready for our handwriting salt tray activity.
