Word Hunt and Writing Activities

Sight Word Hunt


Students wore sight words on their foreheads and had to roam the classroom to located each sight word on the list.  Before they could connect the student name with the sight word, they had to read the sight word out loud to each other.






Such a great activity to build listening and speaking skills along with confidence in their sight words.



Class color day and the student on the right got into the spirit with his face paint!  To create the worksheet, I made 2 columns on Microsoft Word and on one side typed the students in my class and on the other typed relevant sight words. Super simple and very fun!



Sticker Writing:

Each student was given 1 sticker to stick on their paper.  Then, they had to come up with a creative picture that incorporated their sticker.


Students had to write a list of nouns and verbs from their creative picture.  Finally, they created sentences using the sentence frame to match their picture.  A rubric was included on the worksheet to give them accountability for their writing.




Sentence Puzzles:

Each student wrote a sentence using Noun + verb + finisher.


Then, they cut each piece of their sentence apart.

(it was pajama day!)


Once the sentences were cut, we bagged them, and mixed them up.  The students read through a friends sentence and had to create a complete sentence.
