- Guess the Covered Word
http://www.k111.k12.il.us/lafayette/FourBlocks/guess_covered_word.htm
For guess
the covered word you MUST have a sentence that has a LOT of words that would
work - this is NOT a place where you teach context clues unless you are
working with 5th-6th graders - then follow the directions for using a
paragraph instead of individual sentences.
Make
4 or 5 sentences that read like this:
Mary's
favorite food is ....
Tom's
favorite game is ...
Sue likes
to go to the ...
YOU
pre-select the covered word and put 2 or 3 (depending on how long you want
each part to last and whether you are working first sound only or first sound
AND vowel sound) sticky notes over the parts of the word - one over first
sound, one over the first vowel (or vowel digraph) and one over the ending of
the word ... OR one over the first sound and one over the rest of the word.
