--------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Elaine Goldstein <goldsteinelaine@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: prereading activity - Take a large needle or pin and puncture pieces of cardboard in the shapes of letters. blindfold the pupils and have them identify the letters. -Alternatively, put an array of objects on a tray and blindfolded pupils have to identify them. -Have people "recite" something with no sound- others have to guess what they are saying. Read The Cathedral by Raymond Carver-just the part where the blind person is drawing the cathedral. Good luck Elaine Rachel wrote: >Hello all..
