Easter is coming early this year, so I thought I'd get organised with a couple of  printable board games - one to use with Sight Words cards and one to focus on the ‘short u’ sound.  

Both games are 'colour-in' sheets, which can be copied cheaply onto paper or light card to give to children so they can decorate their own game boards (a good Easter Holiday activity to get children to keep practising their Sight Words). 

Click on the pictures below to open a printable .PDF document.

            

Players will also need tokens or movers (counters/buttons/small shells etc.) and a spinner or die/dice.

These games can be downloaded for free during the rest of March- April, for private/educational, non-commercial use.

Shamrock Memory Game (and -at words cards)

It's almost St Patrick's Day, and I've posted a Shamrock-themed Memory game on my free-fun-n-games website, so I thought I should mention it here.

I was having problems with my file sharing site, but it's all sorted now and the printable cards will be available for free download the rest of this month at http://free-fun-n-games.webs.com/readinggamestoprint.htm. You will also find other reading games that you can print.

The 'Shamrock' card backs can be used with any words written on the blank side (use pencil so the writing doesn't show through), or you can print the '_at' words on the back.

Just remember to make two sets of cards, and start with maybe 5 or 6 pairs to play the game.
