Developing a strong sight word vocabulary is an important outcome at the end of the kindergarten year. There are many games to increase this awareness. One is sight word bingo and another is called, "Sorry!". In the latter game, sight words are written on the end of a tongue depressor. Children take turns taking a stick out of the can and if they can read the word, they get to keep it. One of the sticks has the word "sorry" written on it. Whoever chooses that one, has to put all his/her sticks back in the can and begin again. They love this game!
