(4 Years)
We're trying to learn our sight words. We have been playing a lot of different activities (see below) and I have a list of more activities to try (see here). This sight word spotter activity is part reading, part matching. I asked Little Miss and Wild One to each choose a book that we should create magic word spotters for (we call them magic words). I quickly read through the book to find the sight words we have practiced. Then I grabbed our craft sticks, a marker and some post-it flags to create spotters.
We reviewed each of the spotter words before reading the book. They were so excited to find a magic word and match it, while saying the word. It's working! They love spotting the words. They're learning - heh heh, and they don't know it!
When we finished playing with the spotters, I quickly made a little library pocket for the craft sticks to go in. That way the book is ready to go at a moments notice.
This was a very fast activity to set up, one that they really liked and it helped to increase their confidence with reading. Happy kids! Happy mommy!
