GLCE: R.WS.01.06 make progress in automatically recognizing the 220 Dolch basic sight words and 95 common nouns for mastery in third grade.
CCSS: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.1.3g Recognize and read grade-appropriate irregularly spelled words.
Objectives:
1. Students will practice and review the following sight-words; a, all, give, good, new, not, their, then.
2. Students will become more familiar with these words by recognizing them in the context of a poem, by practicing the words during an activity, and by completing a worksheet.
Anticipatory Set: I will begin by showing a picture of a cookie and tell students that chocolate chip is my favorite type of cookie.
Introduction: I will ask a few students to share their favorite types of cookies. I will ask for a show of hands. How many like chocolate chip cookies? Sugar cookies? Oatmeal raison cookies? Peanut butter cookies? Sandwich cookies (like Oreo cookies)?
Input/Modeling: Next, I will pass out the list of sight-words and the poem, “Cookies” to the class. I will ask the students to follow along as I read the poem. Then I will ask the class to choral read the poem along with me. When we finish reading, I will ask if anyone can find the sight-words in the poem. If students have difficulty finding the sight-words, I will go through each line of the poem and point out the words to them. The students will be asked to use a marker or hi-lighter to mark the sight-words in the poem. I will model finding the sight-words on the overhead transparency. When we finish finding the sight-words, I will ask students to count how many words they hi-lighted and write the number at the top of the page.
Check for understanding: Students will play tic-tac-toe. They will be given a worksheet with a tic-tac-toe chart drawn on it. Students will be given a list of sight-words and will be asked to cut the words out, mix them up, and paste them into each of the squares on the tic-tac-toe chart. They will be given two more sight-words on their lists; “and” & “me.” When I call out a word, students will cover the word with a chip. The first person to get 3 words covered in a row will win. We will play the game for 5 minutes. Students who get a tic-tac-toe will win a prize.
Independent Practice: Students will be given a worksheet and will be asked to draw a picture of their favorite type of cookie. They will also be asked to write the 6 sight-words from the poem on the lines provided at the bottom of the page. If there is extra time to fill at the end, I will read the book, “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.”
Closure: I will ask a few students to share their favorite type of cookie and their drawing with the class.
Adaptations for Diverse and/or Special Needs: I will model which words to hi-light on the overhead and observe the students as they hi-light the words in their poem. If a student seems to be having difficulty completing the task, I will walk over to their desk and help them find the word. I will also walk around while students are completing the worksheet, to make sure students are staying on task and offer assistance to those needing the extra help.

Reflection: The anticipatory set, introduction and modeling, independent practice and closure parts of the lesson went well. If I do this lesson again, I would change the activity in the “check for understanding” section. Rather than have students cut out words and paste them onto their tic-tac-toe boards, I would create the tic-tac-toe boards ahead of time. Some students finished their tic-tac-toe boards quicker than others and as a result the early finishers started to get bored. It took 15 minutes for all of the students to create their tic-tac-toe boards. The rest of the lesson went well and most students either met or exceeded the expectations for the assignments.
