Using a light box during structured time together is both fun and educational. My students learn how to bond with their peers, follow directions and stick to a schedule; all skills that prepare them for life. My children are special needs and there are certain activities that work particularly well to keep them engaged, focused and actively learning. I plan to use the light box as a fun and mesmerizing means to increase their attention spans and learning experiences. My children can spend hours with a light box, exercising their fine motor skills by creating illuminated patterns and pictures with brightly colored transparent shapes. We practice pre-writing strokes of numbers, letters, and drawings. They are durable for paint, shaving cream, sand and any other sensory related tactile medium. Our light box is used across all academic areas and the students just love it. I love having it in the classroom.
