Learning new sight words is extra fun when you use tactile writing!

In the Meadow – Lesson 18

I can read sight words: blue, they, four, three, them.

 

Objective: To read sight words: blue, they, four, three, them. (RF.K.3)

Materials: sight word cards, shaving cream, tray

Procedures: Explain to your child that she will learn five new sight words. Talk about each new sight word one at a time and have her trace it with her finger, while saying the letters and then the word. Spread a layer of shaving cream on a tray to pretend it is snow like in the story. You can even place a toy grasshopper in the snow. With his pointer finger, have your child write each sight word in the shaving cream, saying each letter and then the word.

Conclusion: Have your child read each word again and write them on lined paper.
