Large Sight Word Flash Cards

free download· free printables· freebie· literacy centers

Like many teachers, my sight word instruction has shifted in my kindergarten classroom.

I used to teach rote memorization of many sight words during my phonics block every day. And while this is helpful for the development of reading in some students, it is not for all.

The concept of “sight words” is that they have tricky spelling patterns and can not be “sounded out” or decoded letter-sound or phonics pattern knowledge. This is only true for a small percentage of sight words.

So I created much larger sight word flash cards that I use to teach my students new phonics patterns while teaching the words. I do not display these on a wall or pocket chart, I just use them during whole-group phonics instruction and during my reading groups. I find they work much better and without the crutch of a word wall visible, my students are learning them much quicker!

I printed my set on bright colored paper and laminated them so I could easily write on the cards with dry erase markers. I love them!

This set of has 60 sight words. These are words that I used to teach in a phonics curriculum, plus all pronouns and some words I found to be most common in our readers. And they coordinate with my Sight Word Literacy Centers and my Literacy Assessment Portfolio.

In all of my years, I’ve never had emergency sub In all of my years, I’ve never had emergency sub plans. ⁣
⁣
Principals often asked, but I just never did.⁣
⁣
Then this summer I finally got around to them. And I actually needed them twice in the last few weeks. ⁣
⁣
Who knew you could stay home and just work on getting better, instead of spending hours typing and prepping sub plans? Or even worse, not doing them at all and letting your team or admin scramble to get things ready. ⁣
⁣
Long story short: I am now team emergency sub plans. ⁣

For years I struggled with building independence w For years I struggled with building independence with my kindergarten students.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
They always wanted to know when we would move onto the next activity, how much time they had left during choice, how to self-regulate during transitions, and more.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Those problems were solved with the introduction of our visual timers.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I couldn’t love them more. They are invaluable and have been an absolute game changer in my classroom and for my own patience during our days.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And I just added instructions on how to download and add to PowerPoint; it’s so easy!⁣⁣
