Sightwords with the Moveable Alphabet

To continue building on our bingo sight words, today we used the moveable alphabet to literally build them.

 Getting Started

Just as we built our word family words, I jumbled up the letters, of the words we know, from Board 1 of our Bingo pre k sight words game.

We first reviewed the letters of the word, and their sound. Then we sounded out, and built the word. I tried to let them do as much as they could themselves, and Masha' Allah they did pretty well. Here is a look at some of their work.

Professor #2:

He did well sounding out the words, then arranging the letters as he sounded them out.  

 

Professor #1:

With the larger words, he wanted me to call out the letters, as he verified on his worksheet, then built them on the tray. 

Professor #3:

He was very adamant about having a turn too. I started going over the worksheet with him. He read the letters of the first word 'in' then said 'See, I did it!'

That work progressed to this:

Then finally, this:

Masha' Allah, he was happy with his work, and insisted I 'take a picture!'

Baby Professor

Baby Professor kept busy with two different activities this session. 

He stared off with this puzzle, which he is getting quite good at Masha' Allah:

When he was done with that, and getting antsy, I gave him the tray of sandpaper letters Professor #3 discarded yesterday:

Masha' Allah, his face lit up with a big smile. He was so flattered that he was getting to use the big kid stuff! He did well with it Masha' Allah, until after awhile, Professor #3 decided that no, it wasn't good for him anymore, he needed a new activity. Baby Professor felt otherwise, but mercifully for him, it was story time.

We'll continue building our sight words with the moveable alphabet till we get through all four bingo boards insha' Allah.
