You can try a few variations of this game. Still, teachers can use this exercise to prompt social activities. It requires more individual attention to the student, so it’s more convenient for parent-child afternoon time. This one is a nice activity if your kid is more of an outdoor type and likes sports. These flashcards from Education Outside are a great activity for introducing new words or practicing ones they have already learned and can be used anywhere. This can keep kids busy and learning while on the go. Challenge children to read as many as they can in a minute or go head to head with a friend to see who can read them first. You get 52 individual cards and can punch holes and make a set to carry around. Students can then search the boxes for the correct word and circle or color the correct target word.

Next, a sentence with follow-along colored dots reinforces print concepts by having the child point to each word as they read, a vital skill for reading. The first section allows students to trace the word multiple times. These do require laminating to be used again and again but are great for quick, easy practice. Want something a child can take anywhere to practice sight words? These flashcards are small enough to bring along in the car, doctor’s office, or anywhere, giving students a quick way to practice the Dolch primer sight word list.
