Sight Word Hopscotch

Yesterday we played sight word hopscotch! We replaced the numbers on the hopscotch layout with sight words. The rules are as follows:

The first player tosses their marker (we used a teddybear counter) into the first square. The marker must land completely within the designated square and without touching a line or bouncing out. If the marker lands in the wrong square, the player forfeits his/her turn. If the marker is successful, the player hops through the court beginning on square one. Side by side the squares are straddled, with the left foot landing in the left square, and the right foot landing in the right square. Single squares must be hopped on one foot. For the first single square, either foot may be used.

Below is a video of us recalling our sight words in this fun game!

Great idea! Another great way to reinforce sight words is playing a board game called Erudition.
