Winter Fun To Promote Language

Winter is cold.  It's dreary.  In the south, it takes way too long to get to spring!  (Can you tell I don't care for winter?)  But the good thing is winter does lend itself to some pretty fun sensory activities that promote language!  There's just something about playing a bin of snow (fake or real),… Continue reading Winter Fun To Promote Language
