Pumpkin Sight Word Hide & Seek

Learning sight words is so much fun when you get creative . I picked up these pumpkin eggs and filled them with scrabble tiles. I hid them and then let my students seek them out . Once we returned to the classroom ,they opened them and worked on unscrambling the scrabble tiles to reveal the sight word. So much fun for the whole class!

Sight Word Recognition


This was a fun activity to work on for sight word recognition. Make a sheet of various sight words and coordinate dot stickers with the same sight word . As you call out the sight word , the students will find the sticker , then locate on their paper and cover up the word with the sticker.


This was a bit of a learning curve .. for my own little one I gave her the whole sticker sheet and that was way to difficult to try to find the word. For my class , I decided to do it in stages with one strip of stickers at a time. That worked so much better!
