Phonics Chants: Idea #247

Are you looking for an engaging way to practice sight words with your students? Well, you should try Phonics Chants. On the I Love 2 Teach website there is a free printable of sixteen chant cards. Some of the chants include: Read each word in your baby voice, cheer each word like you're cheering on your favorite team, read each word in your best British accent, sing each word like an opera singer, do a jumping jack as you read each word, and more!

All you need to do is write the sight words on a poster or chalkboard. Then print off these chant cards. Have students take turns drawing a chant card and reading the sight words the way the card says. If your student is particularly shy, try doing the chants together as a class.

Have fun getting your students out of their comfort zone!
