Edit
This calendar week for the Get Ready for K Through Play Series we are talking well-nigh books, reading, as well as literacy.
We produce a lot of reading as well as book related crafts as well as activities at our occupation solid to become my kids excited well-nigh reading. We also pick out done tons of alphabet as well as word family activities to attention my 5 twelvemonth former boy start putting letters as well as sounds together to brand words.
Now that my boy is get-go to audio out words to a greater extent than as well as more, I've started introducing him to sight words.
Sight words are words that kids are encouraged to memorize every bit a whole past times sight, thus that they tin automatically recognize these words inward impress without having to job whatever strategies to decode. Here is i sight discussion list that I job (from Lakeshore).
We similar to brand learning sight words fun, thus this calendar week I am sharing a unproblematic sight discussion activity nosotros did amongst political party blowers! (we've done this earlier amongst playdough containers every bit well) Scroll downwards for the toddler alphabet version too.
Here's what you'll need: blocks (we used our Melissa & Doug Deluxe Jumbo Cardboard Blocks), painters record (don't job regular tape), newspaper strips, markers, as well as a political party blower.
Here's how nosotros did this activity...
First nosotros cutting out newspaper strips as well as wrote basic sight words on them.
Then nosotros taped the strips to our jumbo blocks as well as and then nosotros stacked them up!
Once our towers were super tall, my boy used his political party blower as well as read each sight discussion every bit he blew each block down. Some were slowly to blow downwards as well as around required to a greater extent than work. It was pretty funny to watch.
This was a pretty intense activity for the muscles inward his mouth. It was loads of fun to produce i time again as well as again... particularly when the blocks would autumn as well as crash loudly. :)
For my toddler nosotros made a basic blowing downwards alphabet letters game. She as well as I worked together to construct her towers as well as and then she knocked them downwards amongst the political party blower. I balanced the letters a niggling to a greater extent than precariously thus that they savage downwards amongst a niggling less effort.
Here are a few of our other unproblematic discussion games we've done...
Here are another ways we've learned as well as played amongst political party blowers...
