Young children love stickers! So, its Sticky Dot Science to the rescue! This is a great resource for a sub, a STEM activity, or a fine motor lesson. My PK and K students really enjoy this activity.  It's simple for the teacher to implement, and the students are exposed to multiple skills:  motor skills, visual application, making connections, and mixed media arts.  I also always had books ready to go for early finishers.  Links for all resources are included.
