Fun with Phonics!

Our kindergarten students have been using a fun web site to practice their letter sounds: www.ABCya.com!  Last week we played Letter Sound Bingo on the SmartBoard.  Every student got the chance to come up to the board and press the letter that matched the sound they heard.  

 



The students at their seats colored in the letters that they identified from the given sound while they waited for their turns to come up to the board.  The first time a letter was used they colored in that letter.  If a letter was used twice they colored in the background as well!


 


This week the students each got to sit at a computer and play the game alone.  They were so excited when they won; the library was filled with their happy cries of "I got BINGO!"  



 
 

There are lots of free educational games on this site that students can use to practice their reading and math skills.  You can choose games for students in grades kindergarten through 5th grade, so older siblings can join in, too!  Have fun!
