Tip of the Week - Sight Word Bingo

I have noticed many are doing great with lots of different activities, but Sight (um, not site...) Words are lacking --help is on the rescue!!

Sight Word Bingo is great for 1) reviewing sight words, and 2) writing development.

1. You or your kids add a new sight word card (or 2) to their sight word envelope.
2. Every 2nd class, play sight word bingo.
3. On your planning form indicate that week's sight words and any others you may have reviewed.

Remember:
- Sight Words are not vocabulary words. We want to expand their vocabulary, but keep in mind that they are tested on their sight words.
- In the past we said use colored cards --if you can figure a good system for that, go ahead. I rather use plain white ones because they're cheaper and you don't get caught up in whether the cards have a particular meaning, etc. They're all sight words.
