New Zealand Sight Words – Feed the Cookie Monster
A super-fun hands-on activity for your students learning their sight words at the Magenta to Orange levels of the NZ colour wheel.
Laminate the Cookie Monster and cut a hole in its mouth. Students read the sight word on the cookie and feed it to the Cookie Monster. I suggest attaching the Cookie Monster to something like an ice-cream container so that it stands upright by itself and so the cookies all fall into something.
Each cookie has a sight word written on it. The colour of the icing indicates the level of the sight word. There are 6 cookies on each A4 page.
An alternative activity using the cookies is to take the cookies on/off a cookie tray using a kitchen spatula or a pair of tongs. This is great for developing find motor skills. A cookie tray template is provided but you will need to provide your own spatula/tongs.
You may like to consider doing an art activity with your students where they make their own Cookie Monster to use with their sight words. This is a great way to personalise the activity.
Included:
♦ Teacher notes
♦ 2 Cookie Monsters (A4 size)
♦ 2 cookie tray templates
♦ Cookies – Magenta, Red, Yellow, Blue, Green, Orange
♦ Blank Templates (cookies) – for you to add additional words if necessary.
♦ Cookies with line underneath the word (Magenta, Red and Yellow levels only)
The font used is ‘NZ Basic Script’. The letter/number shapes are the same as those recommended in the NZ Ministry of Education Handbook – ‘Teaching Handwriting’.

New Zealand Sight Words - Target Practice
Sight word targets for words at the Magenta to Orange level of the NZ colour wheel.
A great activity for your active students who enjoy hands-on learning. Your students can work on their hand-eye co-ordination while learning their sight words.
A suggestion for using these cards is to place them on the floor or the wall/board. Say a word. Your student(s) identify where that word is and tries to hit that target with an object. If the object lands on or hits the target they score one point. Suitable objects to throw would be things like a small bean bag, a paper jet plane, a counter, or a soft ball (eg koosh ball). I’m not sure about using a Nerf gun at school, but how motivating would that be for a reluctant reader! Perhaps a slingshot would be a better idea ...
If throwing activities are not your thing, I completely understand. The good thing is, these cards can be used in any way you wish. For example, touch the word with a ‘magic wand’ and say the word out loud.
You could even print off two sets and play ‘Memory’ with them. (Have some cards face down on the floor/table and turn two over at a time. If they’re the same word you keep the cards).
Features:
♦ There are 4 targets to each A4 size page.
♦ The words are written with the NZ Basic Script font.
♦ A rectangular shape – easy to cut out and laminate!
