Today's idea is a very simple one that's lots of fun - Beach Ball Sight Words!
All you'll need for this activity is a soft ball. Inflatable beach balls work best because you can flatten them back out for storage, but if you can't find one any large ball will work. Write your focus sight words right onto the ball using a permanent marker!
If you have outside space (and weather permits) have kidlets stand in a circle and throw the ball to each other. It's best if the kidlet with the ball calls the name of the friend they're throwing to, so they're prepared to catch it! When they do, they need to read the sight word facing them, before passing the ball on.
This game is best if played in small groups so that everyone gets lots of turns, but you can also play it with the whole class. If you need to play inside, have kidlets sit in a circle and roll the ball to each other!
I hope this is an activity that your wriggly little learners will love!
So much fun! Thank you for sharing!
