Lesson 5<br />

Grade 7 - Grade 12<br />

Basic Reading<br />

Sight Recognition<br />

• The Disappearing Word<br />

Mount all of the sight words on the chalkboard. For added motiva tion, you may wish to prepare an extra set of sight word cards to add to<br />

those on the chalkboard. Have the students look carefully at the sight words. Then, the students should close their eyes. When the stu -<br />

dents' eyes are closed, remove one of the sight words from the chalkboard. Have the students open their eyes and identify the missing<br />

word. Re peat this process until all of the sight words have been re moved from the chalk board and identified in this way.<br />

• One To Six<br />

Provide each student with a copy of the “1-6” sheet from the back of this Unit. The students should cut out the numbers. Then, each student<br />

should place TWO number cards in front of him/her. Mount the sight words on the chalk board. Toss two dice and call the numbers<br />

showing on them. Any student or students who have those two numbers on their num ber cards, must identify a sight word you point to.<br />

The students may exchange number cards periodi cally during the activity. Repeat until all of the sight words have been identified a number<br />

of times.<br />

• Name of Fortune<br />

Before the activity begins, prepare a name card for each student in the class. Arrange the name cards in a circle on your desk. Place a<br />

bot tle in the center of the circle. Mount the sight words on the chalkboard. Spin the bottle. When the bottle stops, call the student's name<br />

from the name card the bottle is pointing to. That student must then identify a sight word you point to on the chalkboard. Remove that stu -<br />

dent's card from the circle of name cards. Continue in this way until all of the name cards have been removed and until each student has<br />

responded.<br />

• Activity Sheet(s)<br />

Have the students work on activity sheet(s) from the students’ support materials.<br />
