My preschool and kindergarten students just LOVE this activity! With a base vocabulary of 50 words, this activity is easy to set up and so fun to play! Easy Sight Word Fishing is an excellent resource for sight word recognition, vocabulary expansion, phonemic awareness, fine motor skills, reinforcement and review, and most importantly, a positive learning experience.

Included in the pdf download are two print-ready Word Charts, great for tacking to a classroom board or directly in student notebooks. The vocabulary in this activity is aligned to Easy Sight Words 1 and Easy Sight Words 2 by Kinney Brothers Publishing.
To play, make “fishing poles” with a stick, string, and a magnet. Fix metal paperclips to each fish and voila! Instant fun! I recommend laminating the fish and you’ll have this activity set for many years. Teachers can put the fish in a sensory bin, behind a short wall, or in an enclosed circle like a pond. The fish can also be used as flashcards, game cards, for sorting and ordering activities, or decorating a classroom board! Remember, what looks like a game is actually a fun review!
