Sight Word Snake: Idea #260

Celebrate the sight words your students know by making a classroom snake. This game can be a great way to practice and motivate students to learn their sight words. This is what you do:

1. PREPARATION: Buy or make a set of sight word cards. 

2. TO PLAY: Show a student a sight word card from the deck and have them read it to you.

3. After the student has read the card, have them pick a new card from the deck and ask a different student in the room to read it.

4. Once the student has read the card, the child holds on to the first student's hand.

5. Keep playing the game with each student holding up a sight word card and inviting another student to come and read it. After each student has read the word, have them connect to the snake by holding on to another student's hand. I found this great game here.

Have fun making a human snake!
