licorice spelling - Rather than play dough, vary the activity above by providing students with licorice strings they can use to form the letters of select words.Have them use play dough to make a long snake, then use the dough to form the letters to spell the words. This preschool sight word list presents the Dolch 220 Pre-Primer sight words in order based on use in texts. play dough spelling - Have the students sit at desks or tables and write a few sight words on the board using big letters.

The students will need a lot of help at first, but will soon get the hang of it. The student reads the word, with help from the class if needed, and makes a sentence with the word. bean bag toss - Have the flashcards strewn around the floor and let each child toss the bean bag onto a word.Allow class time for them to color and decorate their flashcards. decorate flashcards - When students create their own flashcards, let them personalize the finished project.Be sure to vary the activities rather than doing the same one every day. Incorporate some or all of these activities into your lesson plan. Repeat daily for a few months, varying the activities until students have a complete deck of flashcards featuring all 40 of the Pre-K sight words.The next day, have students use the flashcards they made to review and say the words aloud.Provide students with enough cover stock to create their own flashcards featuring each word, copying the word from your flashcard.Show the card, see if anyone knows the word, then reinforce correct answers given or state what the word is if needed. Use your flashcards to introduce the words to students on the first day of a new group of words.For example, week one could be "a" (a, and, away), week two could be words that start with "b" (big, blue), and so on through the alphabet. Consider focusing on sight words one or two letters at a time.
