Tracer book: It helps extend the vocabulary. There is a black and white version for the students to color and create their own book to take home.
When the students finish tracing the sentences on their books, start reading. Assign a color to identify each sight word.

Teacher: Circle the word “it” red.
Teacher: Circle the word “is” blue.
Teacher: Circle the word “a” yellow.
Help the students assemble the book. I made this one by punching a hole on the side and connected using a metal ring. Read again using a straw as a pointer, have them look for specific words.
Teacher: Look for the word “Spring”. Use your pointer. 


                   A set of matching words and pictures cards.
Students in groups can match each picture to each word.
Another game: Have the students place all the cards face up on the table. Say a word and have them find the word and the picture.

Teacher: Find “sun”.
Students: sun!  Student shows the picture and the word.

Paper plates are great for sorting the vocabulary words into seasons. Write each Season word on each paper plate.

I found this game and gave it a try. Let me know if you liked it.

There is a sunscreen lotion clipart to make a card holder. You can use it to play a guessing game by slowly taking a card out and having the children guess what it is.
Spelling BINGO! Spelling is related to the students’ reading and writing abilities. Give students the template and ask them to write 6 of all the words of their choice. You can use the matching cards as calling cards. Students cross out the words called out. The winner is the first one to cross the 6 words.

First, have the students color the animals as you dictate them to practice listening. It also helps to keep the pace as students have to color on the time that you give them such as a minute for each animal.  Teacher: Color the giraffe orange!
There is the cake that students color as in the paragraph that you hand in. It can be done as a diorama. Students read the paragraph and place the animals where it corresponds. I placed an opened clip behind each item. Students can take turns reading each sentence and another student has to place the animal.
