Here is our First Sight Word Pack!
I am very excited to begin our Sight Word packs, I will have them for seasons also.
Who Put the Cookie in the Cookie Jar_
Trick -or-Treat! Sight Word Pack
Literacy
Alphabet Pages Pack!
It’s finally here! After a week of working and working on this; it’s finally completed!
27 pages of coloring, matching pictures to the letter sounds and finding the different object in a sequence.
The best thing is that it’s all FREE to you!
You can laminate them or put them into clear pocket protectors to use multiple times.
Bug Phonics
“Draw a Line” sheets
With this activity, children learn the beginning sounds of words. The plus side is that they can use their motor skills when drawing the lines from the picture to the letter that goes with that word.
Just click below for the worksheet.
Draw A Line Sheet 3
Circle the Pictures (N to Z)
Here are the remaining sheets for the Circle the Pictures.
Once again, use a laminator or clear pocket protectors. It would be a great idea to store them in a notebook so they would be easy to use.
Circle The Pictures (A to M)
I spent all day working on some sheets that will help the little ones with sounding out their letters and matching them to the appropriate words.
Now, you can print these off in either 5×7 or 8×10. You can laminate them or put them in clear pocket protectors so that you can use them multiple times. Make sure to use dry erase markers when using laminating sheets and the pocket protectors. Since there are so m
any, I will divide them into 2 groups.
Literacy Fun Sheets!
With these sheets, simply print them out to a 5×7 size and either laminate or put inside a clear pocket protector.
Children can use magnetic letters to spell the words or use dry erase markers to write the letters.
All of the words are simple words with only three letters. This is a wonderful phonics activity for Preschool, Kindergarten and even First grade.
Dollar Tree Hack #4
Sight Word Game
This game can be used with preschoolers through any grade!
What you will need: Sight Word strips, cardstock (optional), glue (optional), markers or stickers.
Cost: Approximately: $1.75
All you do is cut your Sight Word strips to the length needed. There are usually a few in the package that have 2 words to a strip and this is what I use as a template to cut the others to length.
I added cardstock to the back of mine because I used markers to write the word “BOOM!” on 3 cards (you can write it on up to 7 cards. If you choose to use stickers; you may not need to use the cardstock. If you do use cardstock; glue the strips to the cardstock. If you are using markers; use them before you laminate.
You don’t have to laminate; but they will last longer.
A few notes before I tell you how to play: You get about 40-45 words per pack! You don’t have to use all the words in the game at once. Go ahead and switch them up every now and again. The more words; the longer the game. The more people playing; the more words you may want.
How to Play: Shuffle the cards and lay the pile in the middle of the table, face down. Each player takes a card and if he/she reads the card correctly; they get to keep the card! If they choose the “BOOM!” card, they return ALL their cards to the pile and the pile gets re-shuffled. When all the cards are gone from the pile, the person with the most cards is the winner. You can also put a time limit on the game; say 3 or 5 minutes and the person with the most cards at the end of that time is the winner.
Make sure to cheer on the success of your players! Give them the extra encouragement they need if they are beginning to feel frustrated. Let them know they are doing a great job. You can even have them help you a time or two (insert smile here).
Learning to Spell
We start with simple words; “it” “is” “at”.
Putting a consonant in front of those small words is easy and children get so excited when they see they have learned a new word. When they can put 3-5 consonants in front of one small word and make multiple words; you better believe the excitement multiples as well.
There are so many ways to introduce words to young ones. This is but one small step. Sounding out the beginning letter sound to make the correct word, this helps with letter recognition, and sight words.
When you begin; go over each consonant with your child; sounding out each one. Mistakes are okay. Smile, give a hug of encouragement and move on to the next one.
Let’s Learn with Cars!
Cars make everything fun! So why not incorporate cars and letters!
This one takes some time; but it’s worth it. Make a car for every letter of the alphabet (using the upper case letters). Use sentence strips that are white and black and look like a street; cut into smaller pieces and write a lower case letter on each piece. The object here is to match the car with the road that has the matching letter.
Don’t be upset if they want to drive around the block (table) to get to the letter first, it’s all part of the play in learning. You can set the road up into a long stretch, curves, hills; whatever makes it fun for your young one. Or just keep them in separate pieces.
I used the template below, but I left out the back window so that I could have room for the letters. I used letter templates that I purchased online from another blog, so I cannot share those. You can use stickers or just draw the letters on the cars.
Again, I laminate everything!
