Teacher tip
“A” is one letter, so the find it box is all about telling a from o and e. Ask kids to say “a” out loud each time they color one.
How to use it
- Make it the word of the day: post it on the door and ask kids to read it on the way out.
- Put the sheet in a page protector for dry-erase practice all week.
- Keep a sight word ring of flash cards so kids can check spellings.
Watch for
Kids who count look-alike words as matches in the find it box. Ask them to check every letter.
Talk about it
- What other word looks a lot like this one?
- Which words look alike? How do you tell them apart?
