Skill Development:
Basic Concepts- Students explore and differentiate a rainbow of colors with the varied shades of pops (e.g. dark and light blue, dark and light orange).

Language- Reinforces uppercase and lowercase letter recognition through matching. Expressive and receptive language skills can be engaged by quizzing the student to find specific color matches and naming the letter aloud.

Fine Motor- Promotes two finger isolation with thumb and forefinger by holding the base of the Alpha Popsâ stick to pull the pops apart or connect them together. This strengthens hand muscles needed for daily living activities like buttoning clothes or brushing teeth.
