Summer Sight Word Game Game Directions

To create, first gather some sea shells from the beach or even at your local craft store Or grab some Shells on Amazon here.  You will need at least 26 shells for each letter.  Now it’s time to research the words our child should be working on.  Here’s a list of Dolch Words or Fry Words for each grade level from Kindergarten to Third Grade.

 
Use the words that your child should be working on and write them down on a sheet of paper with your child. 

Here’s a blank circle template for printing.  Then attach the circles to a few funs pieces of scrapbook paper to make it colorful.

Next take the seashells and add all of the letters of the alphabet onto each shell.  Put the shells in a fun container.  We added ours to some colorful cloud dough we created recently.  Sand would be fun too to use in the container.
