    Day 4- GAME DAY!

    I know how much you guys love to play literacy games! Today, you’ll get to make and play “Pig” with a family member.  First, you’ll need to work with a family member to write all of your sight words on popsicle sticks (use the sight word list at the top of this page). If you don’t have any at home, you can also write them on small pieces of paper, index cards, etc.  Don’t forget to write the word “pig” (or another fun word of your choice) on a bunch of them. You know the rules - show a family member how to play!
