Toss and Blend: A Carnival Game. Have you ever played the carnival game where you try to toss chips into a cup to win a fabulous prize?

Toss and Blend: A Carnival Game

This version may not snag your kid a life size stuffed giraffe, but it will give him a boost with writing and spelling. Sure it's fun, but beneath the carnival atmosphere is a game that helps reinforce beginning sound-letter combinations. So bring out the paper cups and let's build some words! What You Do: Using a thick marker, write one of the following beginning blends on the inside lip of each paper cup: BL-TW-QU-CH-SH Next, tape the cups to the floor so they are touching, and visible when viewed from a standing position by you and your child. How many words did you come up with for each blend?

Alicia Danyali taught primary-level students for four years at the International School of Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Candy Land: Sight Word Edition! There are so many fun games out there to teach sight words, but this might just be my new favorite!

Candy Land: Sight Word Edition!

I mean, who doesn't love Candy Land? As soon as I put this game out in the classroom, the kids instantly seemed excited! To make Candy Land: Sight Word Edition, I found the game on sale at Target for super cheap (only $5!) Then typed up a list of Dolch words, cut them apart, and taped the words to the color cards with clear packing tape! The game is played just like regular old Candy Land, but instead of just moving to the color pictured on the card, the kids will have to read the word on the card before moving to the color space on the board.
