Happy 4th of July! I hope your having a wonderful day. With record breaking heat here all week, we are just lounging by the pool everyday. I did want to share an oldie, but goodie post for Throwback Thursday. These are my Tile It! sets for sight words.
I am very fortunate to have a mom who loves to scour garage sales for goodies. I can’t stand going to them, but I have a list of things for my mom to keep an eye out for. One of those items on the list are old games, particularly the one with wooden tiles. I love to use the wooden tiles with word work centers. Each week we learn 5 new sight words (popcorn, star words or whatever you may call them). For some of my kids they can already read them so they have moved ahead and are spelling them. I wanted a tub activity that would help the children read and spell them. I had seen this done, but finally got around to making the recording sheets for the first 120 Dolch words.
Your idea is so clever!!! I love it! I teach k so maybe i could use the first set later on when we learn how to add! I'm showing this to our first and second grade teachers for sure. Great for morning seat work! Wonderful post!
