Please let me know if you figure out a way to get students to consistently use these :) I always struggle with getting the students to follow through. Cute!

The first few times the kids work with this kind of paper, I do let them draw in the burn marks/attacks, because it's new and exciting, but eventually we taper it off. I encourage the kids to either be "doctors" and save their letters, or "superheros" and save their letters, using their eraser medicine or eraser superpowers....if the child tends to have a dark side, and continue to hurt their letters (so to speak), then they can do so, but then have to erase and make "zombie" letters in their place, so they don't just get away with not doing it right. :) Thanks again for sharing this. PS: I just had an IEP meeting today with a kid who has been using the Lava paper, and the progress is incredible! Hi Tonya, Thanks for sharing this!!

Its awesome when the kids in therapy want to block their oponnent. They take the time to focuss in their pieces and the amount of space left in the board game. Also allows them to take turns and manage the frustration when someone put a piece where they had planned to put one. I have been using this game in therapy with two and even four kids at the time.
