Description
This literacy (low-prep) packet includes worksheets that work on 10 literacy skills you can teach all year! In each game, students will pick a gumball card and then put a colorful dot with their BINGO dauber on the correct gumball in the gumball machine. This packet works many common core standards such as letters, beginning sounds, rhyming sounds, CVC words, digraphs, and sight words. The sight word file is editable so you can type in your own words and use it all year! Color and black/white versions of these games are included in this packet.
You can see how I use this practice by reading about it on my blog HERE.
