Click here to read 12 Sight Word Activities with a Lot of Hands on Learning on Hands On As We Grow®


Henry is a first grader this year and came home with a letter about their expectations for learning sight words.

Call me crazy, but I was so excited!

That means we get to do all these fun sight word activities to help him learn them!

Learning sight words can be a lot of fun for the kids with these simple activities!

Sight words are all about memorization and recognition. Not about the spelling or sounding them out.

Seeing the sight word and knowing what it is right off the bat. That’s the goal.

All throughout kindergarten we’ve been doing tons of sight word activities to practice, practice, practice. Henry loves it, so I just go with it!

These are twelve activities that we’ve done to learn sight words, with a few from around the web as well.

A wonderful bonus to any of these activities is that they can usually be adapted to letters. Check out the game on the stairs, or the magic paint.

So, if you have a preschooler that wants to play along, just switch out the sight words for letters of the alphabet.

I’ve done this so many times with Henry and George. Henry works on sight words and George works on letters. Its a wonderful combo for hands on learning.

Make learning sight words fun, fresh and simple with these creative and fantastic activities your kids will love!
