This sight word caterpillar makes her so proud and gives her the drive to learn more to make him longer. For each link on the caterpillar she has to write the word and color it. The set does come with sight word cards and all the letters to build the words, I just use the sight word cards I already have and some scrabble pieces.Īt the end of the week on Friday, my daughter adds the words she has learned to her sight word caterpillar. This Read it, Build it, Write It set from Bitty Beginnings is great for more practice to reinforce sight word recognition. There are 10 books in the first set and my daughter loves them. These books are SO cute! They are an early phonics program with beautiful stories crafted to build reading skills. (Now that we have learned all the pre-primer sight words we are going through these activities/games again as a refresher.)Īnd to reinforce our sight words we started using Dash Into Learning. This pack is loaded with tons of activities for learning sight words! Playdough mats, tracing pages, word matching, clip cards, find the word pages, Bingo and much more. We also used Lets Play Schools Sight Words Activity Pack for some fun games. These little books have created such a special time for us while coloring together and have given her ownership and confidence in her reading. Each book builds off the previous so she is constantly reviewing and reading all the words she has already learned. We then continued to read the same book throughout the week. When we were done we put the book together and she would read it to me. Each mini book has 6 pages so she would pick 3 to color and I would color the other 3. The Emergent Reader Sets from The Moffatt Girls are so perfect for my daughter because she LOVES to color. (The order of words I chose each week are based off of these emergent readers.) We would go over them a few times and then would start coloring her emergent reader for the week. I used the sight word flash cards in the Lets Play School Sight Word Pack. After trying a few things I decided on what worked best and we had a great routine:Įvery Monday I would introduce her to 2-3 new words. I didn’t want to rush anything so I just focused on 2-3 words a week. She was curious about reading so I decided to start teaching her sight words. Beauty of homeschool: always molding to each individual child.Īt the beginning of our school year my daughter (who was 4 1/2 years old) already knew all her letters and their sounds. Though I will try these again with my son, I know he might like to learn a different way. but finally found what works best for her. We have tried many different resources, games, worksheets etc. Since she is my oldest, poor girl will always be my little guinea pig when it comes to homeschooling. Last week my daughter finished learning all her pre-primer sight words! She has got them down and her reading is taking off! So today I thought I would share how I taught them to her and what worked for us.
