Sight Word Games

An important part of reading foundational skills to to build students' fluency with sight words/high frequency words (palabras de uso frecuente!). This year, I am trying various different methods to get students more involved with the sight words - especially by playing weekly games to practice, practice and practice those sight words! I am also finding that by introducing the words early on students are already building their practice with reading Spanish syllables/practicing how to recognize and read Spanish letters/words with their correct sounds! I introduced these games first in my small guided reading group so that I could explain how to play. Now that they have played these three games, I can place the same type of games (but with different sight words) at their independent centers throughout the year!

 Here students spin the Spinner and then read the sight word out loud and then find it and color it!

Here students throw the dice, find the word that by that dice, read it out loud and then trace it! If they roll the number 6, they skip their turn!


Here students throw the dice, read the word out loud and then write it on a dry erase surface! There is also the option of using the worksheet that comes with the game, where students need to find the word and color it in!

You can find these sight word games in my "Sight Word Bundle in Spanish": https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Sight-Word-Bundle-in-Spanish-2804366
