Sight word activities are something that we try to incorporate into our Kinder classrooms every day, but it can be a task that quickly becomes a chore. If you want to spice up your sight word activities, particularly if you run sight word stations as part of your literacy activities, then you’ll love some of these great ideas. If you are lucky enough to have a parent volunteer, then these sight word activities will be perfect for them to help with, especially as having an extra adult there to reinforce the correct words is a huge help.
These activities are a great addition to Jennifer’s Sight Words in 3 Steps method that is so popular. The sight word activities can also be easily adapted for use with learning CVC words and other spelling words, or made easier and used for recognizing letters of the alphabet or numbers.
