#KINDERGARTEN SIGHT WORD POWERPOINT FREE#
➍ Kinesthetic– students sky-write and body-spell the sight word ❸ Reading & Writing– students read and write the word on whiteboards or in a student notebook ➋ Auditory– students say, spell, and hear the sight word ❶ Visual– students read the target sight word, and again in context With this PowerPoint, you’ll be able to introduce sight words using all 4 learning styles: It includes the sight word ‘the’ for you to try with your students. This PowerPoint presentation is a free sample of my Body-Spelling PowerPoint resource. Movement has been scientifically proven to be linked with increased academic performance! Most students are kinesthetic learners and using their bodies to spell words is a great way to incorporate movement into sight word instruction! Sight word fluency is so important, yet many kids struggle to build and retain a strong sight word vocabulary, despite a variety of approaches. This strategy has worked very well and I credit it for my monsters being so fluent in sight words (and therefore, great readers!) And then, on Pinterest (oh Pinterest, how do we love thee…let me count the ways…!) I saw this pin from Heidi Songs and creative juices went to work.⭐The bundle has just been posted and is 40% OFF for a limited time!⭐ Grab it here:Ĥ0% OFF: Body-Spelling Sight Words BUNDLE Eventually towards the end of the year we start using all 220 words and start preparing for first grade! If you want the PowerPoint, you can visit my freebies page! Just click on Freebies at the top of the page! As the year progresses (October/November) I keep the words mixed up and in a random order and I start to read fewer and fewer of the words. I will read the word, then they read the word. Prior to starting the PowerPoint, the monsters tell me why we do sight words everyday (so we can be better readers and writers) and they tell me we see sight words (everywhere!) Early in the year we do the words in order and they repeat the words. I added sound effects to make it more fun for the monsters. The monsters read the word when it pops up. I put each word on a slide and we go through the words quickly. That constant exposure helps them to recognize those words when reading. I think the simple strategy works because the monsters are exposed to the same 40 words every single day. Today I want to share one of my (in my opinion) most effective strategies for teaching sight words (and addressing common core standards!) to my little monsters! It’s a simple, quick and effective strategy that we do every morning during our reading block. Happy Saturday! It is gray, cold and drizzly here in Music City! A perfect day to sit inside the warm house! We’re actually planning for our New Year’s party so we’ve been out buying supplies!!
