Bundle of Summer High-Frequency Words (Sight Words) - Year 1 & Reception

Looking for summer high-frequency words for games for year 1? These 300 sight words in 3 different versions are perfect for reading sight words students need to be able to read quickly and without decoding and follow on from the first high-frequency words. Memory, Pairs, Lotto and Snap are popular games to practice these important literacy skills so that reading becomes more accurate and fluent, leaving your students to feel more confident.
With a summer beach theme, these games are perfect for June, July, August & September and will engage your students.

They are the first 300 sight words that children will probably be learning and include both tricky and decodable words. Students will be eager to decode & read and will find it easier to recognise these words instantly in different texts so that reading books becomes easier. Challenging other players on whether they can read the words correctly will keep them engaged

Finding ways to make this fun e.g. by playing games and ‘drip feeding’ this into daily phonics activities is a great way of getting students to become quicker and more accurate with these key literacy skills. Playing games gives a bit of competition which helps many students to make learning fun, persevere and try harder!

Setting up is quick and instructions are easy to follow and come with the games. Use them in adult-led activities where you can teach and assess their accuracy and speed of decoding, reading and/or instant recall of words

The games can also be used as independent activities if you are teaching phonics as part of a lesson, or as an activity for those students who need more practice. Select the words they are learning at the moment or are finding particularly tricky for extra practice.

Differentiation is easy - choose the easier or fewer words or challenge them to read the trickier words.
