Hi everyone! I’m so excited to be sharing this post with you today. Over the last two weeks, my educational assistant and I have been implementing new and engaging ways to have our students learn their sight words. I think we have discovered some activities that have been successful and I wanted to to share them with you, so here we go!sight wordsMagic Sight Words
The first activity is a #pinterest inspired idea! Mrs. Saenz, came up with this idea, it is so simple, yet magical! The kids were so excited to reveal the magic word, read it, then write it! I seriously haven’t seen my kids wait their turn anxiously to go to our sight word center! I told the kids, “Today you will be magicians, on this white sheet of paper, you have some magic words that amazing readers and writers can read. All you have to do is color over the white box to reveal your magical sight word, then AbraCadaBra… read it, then write it! Hearing them talk with each other about what sight words they each revealed, was music to my ears! Here is all you need for this activity.
Materials:
  • White Construction Paper
  • White Crayons
  • Paint or markers
Then have students do the rest, for variation, you can have students write the words themselves, trade with a partner, then their partner reveals the “magic sight word.”
sight word activitiesRead it, Build it, Write it
The next activity was one of those ideas you come up with on the fly! We recently ran out of copy paper at our school, so I couldn’t make copies of my usual activities. I had to think fast, fast, as a snap and sometimes those ideas seem to be the most engaging with true authentic learning! Once again the kids loved this activity! The best part was hearing them sing the alphabet, to make sure they were placing back their letters in alphabetical order!
Materials:
  • Sentence strips folded up into 1/4 (write one word per section, then cut them out), then draw picture of a dice with numbers 1-6
  • Regular sheet of paper folded into 1/3
  • Magnetic letters or letter tiles
  • Dice
  • Dry erase markers and eraser
  • Plastic Covers for re-use
Directions:
  • Students roll a Dice, find the matching word with the same number.
  • Then they read it, build, and write it!

Since these activities have been such a success, I’ve actually created a forever freebie printable, to go right along with them! Enjoy, and may your students have a #magical experience learning their sight words! Here you go~ Β πŸ™‚

It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday mont It literally just hit me, this is my Birthday month. 😬
🀍 We adopted a new Reading and Language Arts curriculum this year and I have been in over my head with it, but loving it.
🫠I like to try new things and really give curriculum an opportunity when it’s new (to our district) and implement it without supplementing it. I mean how will one know if it works, if we don’t try it? Right?🫣
🫢🏼Anyhow, my birthday is coming up and totally looking forward to another year of adventures, journeys, and growing! One can never stop learning πŸ’“
