Teacher tip
Read each sentence with a “hmm” in the blank, then try each word.
How to use it
- 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.
- Play it again later in the week with a different partner. Repeat play builds speed.
Watch for
Kids who read the words in order from memory. Point to words out of order to check.
Talk about it
- Which word was the hardest to read? Why?
- Can you find one of these words in a book from the class library?
