This document discusses how play dough can be used as a learning tool in the classroom. It provides instructions for making homemade play dough and lists its benefits, such as being non-toxic, inexpensive, hands-on, and inspiring creativity. It then gives many ideas for how to incorporate play dough into lessons, such as using it to create models of the solar system, human body, or story characters; compare and contrast animals; visualize story scenes; amplify story time; sculpt monsters or meals; invent things; play charades; and more. Apps are also suggested to enhance play dough activities.
