When I ask for donated items at the beginning of a school year, I never forget to list "TV Dinner Trays." Here are just a few ways you can use them:

1 - Younger students can use them for counting and sorting
2 - Great for paint trays
3 - Sequence of events stories and drawings
4 - Comic strip stories
5 - A book report (ex: the "favorite part" of the story goes in the "dessert section." The "plot" of the story goes in the "main dish" section and the "characters" might go in the "side dishes" etc.)
