Teach upper grades and have students struggling with basic sight words? Me, too.
There are some students who need basic sight word instruction and follow-up practice. The majority of my students who fit this need are second language learners. I start or end a guided reading group with some quick sight word practice (word work), usually based on the text that we are reading together.
In addition to word work during guided reading, I created Find It, Spell It, Write It printables for use during independent practice time. Students get a few minutes to daub using a Bingo dauber, write the sight word in isolation, then use that sight word in a sentence. So far, I have made practice sheets for 80 of Fry’s First 100 words out. Check out a 10 word sample bundle I have made available for free on Teachers Pay Teachers! Denise
