Revision is so important to learning to read sight words and I love finding new and playful ways to revise words with my girls. Making revision fun makes it both more engaging and more memorable – and I think this is particularly important for our youngest readers which is why today I am sharing 50 fun sight word activities for kindergarten (that are obviously also fun for kids in other grades!)
I can assure you…these sight words activities sure fit the bill of being both engaging and memorable!
