New Zealand Sight Words – Build and Read a Road
A fantastic sight word activity …. particularly for your boys.
Build a road and drive a toy car along it, reading the sight words as you drive past them.
For sight words at the Magenta, Red, Yellow, Blue, Green and Orange levels of the NZ reading colour wheel.
You can use this resource to make up all sorts of activities and games. For example …
1. Make a road that is in the form of a loop. Roll a dice and travel that many spaces along the road, reading the sight words as you go. Have a marker on one of the words (eg a toy house on the word ‘into’) and every time you pass that marker you score one point. Who can score 10 points first?
2. As above, but when you land on a word you count how many letters it has. You say the word out loud that many times. For example, if you land on the word ‘little’ you say it 6 times.
3. The teacher (or a buddy) says a word. Drive your car to that word.
4. The teacher (or a buddy) gives a clue to a word. Drive your car to that word. For example, drive your car to a word that starts with b and ends with k. Or, drive your car to a 3 letter word that rhymes with ‘man’.
Because there are corners, roundabouts and T intersections, a different road layout can be built each time. Great for your creative learners.
Included:
♦ Road pieces with sight words – for Magenta to Orange levels.
♦ Blank road pieces (to add additional words if necessary).
♦ Road parts – corners, roundabouts and T intersections (these do not have words on them).
♦ Road stops – petrol, mechanic, house and car park (these are just for fun, use them if you want to).
♦ Teacher notes and a word list.
Ink friendly - all in black/grey/white.
The font used is ‘NZ Basic Script’. The letter shapes are the same as those recommended in the NZ Ministry of Education Handbook – ‘Teaching Handwriting’. The size of the font gets smaller as the levels progress.
It is suggested that you put a little coloured dot on the back of the road pieces before laminating (eg a yellow dot on the back of the road pieces for words at the yellow level). That way if the pieces at each level get muddled, you’ll easily be able to sort them back into the correct groups.
You will need to provide the toy cars.
This resource is very versatile. Print more than one copy to make more road pieces, combine more than one set, etc.
Made on A4 size paper.
4 road pieces (8 words) on each A4 page.
2 road parts (corners, etc) on each A4 page.
Each road piece measures approximately 130mm x 85mm.
The corners, etc, measure approximately 130mm x 130mm

New Zealand Sight Words – Hot Laps Racing Track
An engaging sight word activity …. particularly for your boys.
Build a racing track and drive a toy car along it, reading the sight words as you go.
This resource contains sight words at the Magenta to Orange levels of the NZ reading colour wheel.
Sight words are written on a piece of ‘racing track’. Print them off, laminate, and cut. Use as many pieces as you wish and combine them with the corners, starting grid and finishing line. Your students can design their very own racing track!
You can use this resource to make up all sorts of activities and games. For example …
* Make a racing track that is in the form of a loop. Roll a dice and travel that many spaces along the race track, reading the sight words as you go. Every time you pass the finishing line (chequered squares or flags) you score one point. Who can score 10 points first?
* As above, but when you land on a word you count how many letters it has. You say the word out loud that many times. For example, if you land on the word ‘little’ you say it 6 times.
* The teacher (or a buddy) says a word. Drive your car to that word.
* The teacher (or a buddy) gives a clue to a word. Drive your car to that word. For example, drive your car to a word that starts with b and ends with k. Or, drive your car to a 3 letter word that rhymes with ‘man’.
A different racing track layout can be built each time. Great for your creative learners!
Included:
♦ Track pieces with sight words (Magenta to Orange levels).
♦ Blank track pieces (to add additional words if necessary).
♦ Corners, starting grid and finish line.
♦ Teacher notes and a word list.
Ink friendly - all in black/grey/white.
The font used is ‘NZ Basic Script’. The letter shapes are the same as those recommended in the NZ Ministry of Education Handbook – ‘Teaching Handwriting’. Each word is written on a faint grey line.
It is suggested that you put a little coloured dot on the back of the track pieces before laminating (eg a yellow dot on the back of the track pieces for words at the yellow level). That way if the pieces at each level get muddled, you’ll easily be able to sort them back into the correct groups.
You will need to provide the toy cars.
This resource is very versatile. Print more than one copy to make more track pieces, combine more than one set, etc.
Made on A4 size paper.
4 track pieces (4 words) on each A4 page.
Each track piece measures approximately 130mm x 85mm.
The corners measure approximately 130mm x 130mm
The starting grid measure approximately 130mm x 170mm.

New Zealand High Frequency Sight Words - 'Clip and Flip' Word Frames
A full set of ‘clip and flip’ cards from magenta to orange!
Sight words are written in code (word frames) – can your students work out the correct word?
A word frame and 3 words are displayed on a funky i-pad. The colour of the i-pad is the same as the level on the colour wheel (eg ‘Red’ words have a red i-pad). Your students study the 3 words and decide which word fits the frame. They pin a clothes peg under the word they select then flip the card over to see if they are correct.
Please note that the cards do not come with the answers already on the back. You will need to indicate the answer prior to laminating the cards. This is achieved by simply placing a pencil tick in the correct location behind the coloured border. Instructions are included in the resource.
A great hands-on, critical thinking literacy activity for your students.
* Use these cards in a literacy centre, in a ‘word of the day’ discussion, as a writing activity (write the word in the word frame then wipe off) etc ….
* 2 i-pads on each A4 size paper.
* Word lists included for each set of words.
High frequency words align to the NZ reading colour wheel:
♦ magenta (25 words)
♦ red (28 words)
♦ yellow (31 words)
♦ blue (37 words)
♦ green (49 words)
♦ orange (63 words)
