I know my students will benefit from using the sand and the sand accessories in the classroom because they naturally love playing with sand. I can capitalize on this natural affinity by bringing it into my classroom and incorporating it into my curriculum. Because of its sensory nature, sand play is an excellent medium for exploration and discovery and provides opportunities to integrate STEM education into my classroom. When students are playing with the sand it will increase large and small movement skills including spatial relationships, gross and fine motor skills and body awareness through exploration. My students will learn a lot and have fun doing it!
