If you are anything like me, you are always looking for creative ways to help your students learn their sight words! We use the kindergarten Dolch word list for our kindergarten students. There are 52 words on this list and we have really been working toward them learning these words. Many of my students have also moved on to the first grade word list! I created a word game for my students using the donut erasers from Target (love those erasers!).
This game is super easy to prepare! To prepare this game, I just printed the game board on white cardstock and ran it through my laminator. I grabbed some donut mini erasers that I picked up at the Target Dollar Spot and I also grabbed a dot cube.
To introduce this game to my students, I played the game with my students. I took a turn and then I picked a student to take a turn for the class. On each person's turn, they rolled the dot cube, moved that many spaces on the game board, and read the word. We continued this process until one of us reached the donut box first.
This game was so fun for my students and it can be used in many ways:
*At a word work literacy center
*In small reading groups
*In intervention groups
*Partner work
