Sight word road game

Looking up for sight word games, I came across parking lot sight word game. So we tried it. After a while it wasn’t exciting anymore for Ilyaas (5).

Using a previous project as an idea, I made this sight word road game.

Materials:

A mat of some kind – mine was about 70 X 120 cm vinyl mat

Painters tape

Sharpie

A maze of some kind for idea – mine was from here (free handers – go ahead)

Using the maze as reference, I taped a road onto the mat.

Using a different colour tape, I placed sight words all over the road.

To play:

Ilyaas (5) will have to drive his car as he reads the sight words along the way. Insha-Allah I plan to add more reading stops onto the mat.

 

Sight Word Shaker

 

Materials:

Plastic jar (I used a Nutella one as is has wider flat sides for better viewing)

Beads (I used leftover fuse beads)

Sharpie

Card stock (Mine were 1 X 1.5 inches)

Sight word sheet laminated

To assemble:

Write sight words onto card stock. Place cards and beads into jar. Seal tight.

To play:

Ask child to shake the jar. Spot a word in the jar, sound it, locate it on the sheet and then trace it wit a non permanent marker.
