How to use it
- Send a copy home so families can play too.
- Read every word on the sheet out loud together before kids start.
- Use it in a literacy center with a partner who checks the reading.
Watch for
Kids who guess from the first letter. Ask them to look at the whole word, all the way to the end.
Talk about it
- Which words look alike? How do you tell them apart?
