Teacher tip
Ask which word had the most and the fewest. It doubles as a math graph.
How to use it
- 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.
- Keep a sight word ring of flash cards so kids can check spellings.
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
- Can you find one of these words in a book from the class library?
- Which words look alike? How do you tell them apart?
Take it further
Play a quick round of “flash and read” with the words at the end of the day.
