Less than $5 Balanced Literacy Centers (by price, high to low)

These products are supplemental activities that I use with my 1st grade students to help them learn their sight words for Benchmark Literacy. The students absolutely love playing Zoom! Zoom! and ask to play it all the time. The sight words strips are perfect for centers or before you start guided reading. The students are able to practice their sight words quietly. How to Play Zoom! Zoom!: 2-4 players Place cards face down on the table. Players take turns flipping the top card. The player reads the word. If they can read it, they place it in front of them. When a player gets a Zoom! Zoom! card, all the other players Zoom! all of their cards to him/her. The player with the most cards at the end of the game wins. *** How to get TeachShare credits to use on future purchases *** Go to your My Purchases page.
