DIRECTIONS-
Type 18 sight words in the spaces below. The PDF will automatically plug those words into all of the games. You can
practice sight words, alphabet letters, classmates’ names, a second language... even math facts!
Want to change the instructions? Click on the text box and type in the words you prefer. You can even use a
different language!
When you’re ready, click “SAVE AS” and give the file a new name. For example, you might call it “WEEK ONE” or
“BLUE GROUP – LIST TWO”. When you’re ready to make a new set of games, just type the next set of words below
and click “SAVE AS” to create a new file. Enjoy!

future, click YES.
Cut out the eggs and spread them face up on a flat surface. If your students are
still learning the sight words, spread out groups of 6 eggs to prevent them from
becoming overwhelmed.
ACTIVITY
Hand a child the spatula and explain that he is the cook in this round. Ask
another student {the caller} to read a sight word, spell it out loud and read it
again. For example, “AND. A-N-D. AND”
The cook finds the matching sight word egg and flips it over. Play continues until
all eggs have been flipped. Then children switch roles – the cook becomes the
caller and vice versa.
Have students write the words on their egg paper when they are finished
flipping.

Treasure Hunt
Assembly tip: For extra durability, print the game on cardstock and laminate.
Print one record sheet and grab a playing piece (coin, counting bear, etc.) for each
child.
In version one, the player will place his token on the starting line.
When you say, “go”, he will move his token along the path, reading each word in order.
You will time him to see how long it takes to read all 18 words. The goal is to read the
words faster and faster each time he completes the race.
In version two of the game, two players place their tokens on the starting line.
Player One rolls the die and moves his token to the corresponding space on the mat.
Player Two then rolls the die, moves her token to the matching spot and reads and writes
the word.
If they land at the bottom of an arrow, they slide their playing piece to the space at the
