Racing with Kim and Val!
Who will win? Have students race with their classmates to see who will win.
Teacher Directions:- Have each student group tear out one copy of Worksheet 13.3.
- Each student should write his or her name at the top of a column or “swim lane.”
- Have all students tear out the worksheet that targets the spellings you wish to review: Worksheet 13.4 reviews /ie/,
Worksheet 13.5 reviews ‘a’, and Worksheet 13.6 reviews ‘o’. All students in the group will read words on the same page. - Have a student pick any word on the page and read it aloud. After the student reads the word, everyone should place an X
on that word. Alternately, you could have students cut out the cards. Then students could take turns drawing a card. - If the student reads the word correctly, he or she may place a checkmark in one of the squares of his or her “swimming lane.”
If a student does not read the word correctly, he may not check a square. - Each student gets only one chance to read a word during his or her turn. Regardless of whether the student reads his or her
word correctly, play then moves to the next student. - The first person to reach the end of the pool wins!
