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)
