Guest Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 Hi everyone, Was wondering if anyone had some different ideas to spice independent reading jobs? Currently, independent groups have a range of ativities thet can choose - games on the IWB, a range of books - read and draw fav picture and a sentence to explain, matching pics and captions, words to read and make using cubes with sounds on them... Any more ideas would be very much appreciated. XXX
AnonyMouse_25084 Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 retell stories with finger puppets. Phonics games, like tricky word bingo or buried treasure game from letters and sounds. um... will keep thinking!
Guest Posted April 28, 2010 Posted April 28, 2010 Depends on the abilities of the children - sentence substitution (letters and sounds game) - last years class of higher abilities enjoyed these working in pairs, but this years class aren't ready for this yet. Word cards and play dough - make the words with playdough/letter stampers in playdough. Magnetic fish with words on - catch the fish and read the word. Letter balls in the water tray - vowels written in red, consonants in black - fish for 3 letters, two black and one red - can they make a word, can they make two words (pat and tap). Are these any good?
