Teacher tip
Swap the first letter to make sit, bit and hit. Kids see that “it” hides in many words.
How to use it
- Introduce the word on the board, read it, spell it out loud and use it in a sentence before handing out the sheet.
- Do the trace and color boxes together, then let kids finish the find it and sentence parts on their own.
- Play it again later in the week with a different partner. Repeat play builds speed.
Watch for
Kids who count look-alike words as matches in the find it box. Ask them to check every letter.
