It’s been many months since I posted the first set of sight word puzzle cards using the Pre-Primer Dolch word list.
My girls have matched them a million times over!
So it is long past time to post the Dolch Primer word set!
My first grader is turning into quite the reader, but she still needs a bit of practice with those pesky sight words that don’t follow phonics rules.
In addition to large amounts of reading, we use a variety of games and activities to practice those frequent words.
Sight Words Puzzle Cards are just one of those fun, hands-on activities we do each day!
Suggestions for Using Sight Words Puzzle Cards
I love activities like these cards, because with a bit of creativity, your child can use them in many different ways.
Here are a few examples of the ways we use them in our home:
→ Scissor Skills – After printing, have your child help you cut them out. The extra squiggly lines are hard to cut out, so you may need to handle those.
→ Simple Matching – Simply match sight word to sight word.
→ As Writing Practice – After your child makes a match, have her write the word on paper or dry erase board. Set a goal of matching and writing 3 cards (or 5 or 7)
→ Group by Beginning Letter – After matching all of the cards, have your child sort them by beginning letter
→ Use the Word in a Sentence – After finding a match, have your child use the word in a sentence
→ Place in Alphabetical Order – After your child matches 3 sets of cards, help her put them in alphabetical order
→ As Review – Once your child has mastered this set of sight words, use these cards as a fun review. And then move on to the First Grade set (coming soon!)
For best results, print on card stock and then laminate.
Note: These cards are intentionally left black & white to save on printer ink.
