In kindergarten
it is very important that students learn to read sight words. These
words are common words that readers see all the time. Use the
activities and sight words below to practice and reinforce what is being
learned at school.
Suggested activities:
-
Play Concentration! Write each word on two index
cards. Lay the cards face down on the table. Take turns
flipping over two cards. Read each card as it is turned
over. If the cards say the same word,
the person gets to keep them. If the cards do not say the same
word, turn them back over. Whoever has the most cards at the end
of the game wins.
-
Show your child
four sight word cards, then have her close her eyes as you take away
one card. Ask her which
word was taken away.
-
As you read aloud with your child have him find the
sight words in the book.
-
Using one of your child's books, find the sight words
in it and write each of those words on a post it note.
Then stick all the post it notes in the back of the book.
Your child can then take each post it note, find the word in
the book and put the post it by the word.
You can do this as you read aloud together, or your child can
do it on her own.
