Product Description:

Candy Corn Themed Flashcards:

• Set 1: Uppercase letters (A-Z) with candy corn designs.
• Set 2: Lowercase letters (a-z) with candy corn designs.
• Set 3: Uppercase and lowercase letter pairs (A/a - Z/z) with candy corn designs.

Monster Faces for Sensory Bin:

• Fun monster faces to attach to empty containers or tissue boxes. Students will love "feeding" the monsters by inserting the candy corn-themed letter cards into the container.

Recording Mats:

• 3 mats designed to track progress while engaging with the sensory bin.
• Students can cover letters with Halloween-themed manipulatives like candy corn, mini spiders, or other small items to mark the letters they have found.

How to Use:

1. Sensory Bin Setup: Add your preferred sensory bin filler (such as black beans, shredded paper, or orange rice) and hide the candy corn-themed letter flashcards. Attach the monster face to an empty container or tissue box for students to "feed" the candy corn letters to the monster.
2. Letter Recognition Practice: Students will search through the bin, find the letter cards, and "feed" the monster by matching the letters. You can choose to focus on uppercase, lowercase, or both sets depending on your students’ needs.
3. Progress Tracking: The included recording mats allow students to track their progress. As they find letters, they can cover the corresponding letters on the mats with candy corn, mini erasers, or other Halloween-themed manipulatives.
