Welcome to the Reading Horizons Discovery® Kindergarten Weekly Student Packet! In this packet, you’ll find activities that students can do independently along with some activities that require the help of a fluent reader. Activities will vary from week to week, but each packet will include a combination of activities described below.
Most Common Words CardsMost Common Words are words that appear so frequently in writing that students should know them by sight. Simply have the student read the words aloud to help them practice rapid recognition skills.
Transfer Cards and Whole Class Transfer CardsThese cards are designed to help students practice a particular reading skill that they’ve learned. They can be used a variety of ways. Consider the following ideas:
• Point to each word (in order or randomly) and have the student read it. • Read the word aloud and have the student write the word on a piece of paper. • Have the student illustrate the sentences on the cards.
Reading Horizons Discovery® Kindergarten Little BooksEach skill lesson contains an accompanying Little Book showcasing words that include skills learned in the lesson. Encour-age the student to read the book aloud to you. Then, read each comprehension question and allow the student to point to the correct response.
Practice PagesInstructions at the top may need to be read to the student.
Sort and Spell ActivitiesIn the Sort and Spell activities, the words can be cut out and moved into the appropriate columns on the sort page. The student could also use the words in the bank as a reference and write the words into the correct columns.
Cloze PassagesThe student should use the words on the second page of the activity to fill in the blanks on the first page. The passages are designed to include only words that the student has learned the necessary skills to read independently.
Writing PromptsDesigned to help students write using skills they’ve learned, writing prompts may need to be read to the student by a fluent reader.
Building Words Activities The student should cut out the accompanying letter cards. A fluent reader should read the Building Words Activity script aloud to the student while the student uses the cards to spell the words. In some cases, it may be smart to break this activity up into two sessions to avoid overloading the student. The Building Words Transfer Card uses words from the Building Words Activity in sentences designed to help students practice reading skills.
GamesEngaging games such as Bear It and the Blends Game are great tools for helping students practice their skills in a fun way. When games are included, you’ll find the instructions along with all the necessary components to play. Consider storing the game components (such as Blends cards) for future use.
Happy Reading and Spelling!
The Reading Horizons Team
There are more than enough activities in each packet to keep a child engaged. You may find that the teacher will assign only certain pages each week. She or he may also send these packets home for a two week period. Be sure to follow whatever instructions are communicated by the teacher.

Games
To play: Break down the sentences, starting from the end, and go backward toward the front of the sentence. Then dictate accordingly.
For example, take the sentence, “Tomorrow, Jane and I are going to town to shop.”
Begin at the end of the sentence, and then build upon it. Dictate: “... to shop.” (Use falling intonation.) “... to town to shop.” “... are going to town to shop.” “... Jane and I are going to town to shop.” “Tomorrow, Jane and I are going to town to shop.”
Variation: This exercise is especially helpful when practicing rising and falling intonation with questions. For example: “Is this going to be on the test?” (Use rising intonation.) “... on the test?” “... going to be on the test?” “Is this going to be on the test?”
Bear It
Objective: Identify and read Most Common Words (MCWs) aloud, and be the player with the highest number of Most Common Words Flashcards.
Materials: Button, coin, bean, or token for each player; Bear-It game board; Most Common Words Flashcards; one die.
Preparation: Copy one Bear-It game board (found online at www.rhaccelerate.com) for every two students or small group in the class. It is recommended that the board be copied on sturdy cardstock and, if possible, laminated.
To play: Place the Most Common Words Flashcards face-down in a draw pile. The first player shakes the die to determine the number of cards he must take from the MCWs draw pile. The player then reads each card aloud and moves one space for each word read correctly. If he can read only two of the cards, he may move only two places. Play stops immediately for that player when a word is missed. The next player then has a turn. If a player lands on a space with a picture, he follows the instructions for that picture at the bottom of the game board. Each player keeps the Most Common Words Flashcards he has read unless he lands on a picture that instructs him to return the words to the pile. If the draw pile runs out of cards before the game is over, players should count and record the number of cards they have accumulated, and then all cards should be shuffled and returned to a new draw pile. The player with the highest number of Most Common Words Flashcards at the end of the game is the winner.
Variation: Play with Alphabet Cards. Students must say the letter names and sounds.

Games
To play: Break down the sentences, starting from the end, and go backward toward the front of the sentence. Then dictate accordingly.
For example, take the sentence, “Tomorrow, Jane and I are going to town to shop.”
Begin at the end of the sentence, and then build upon it. Dictate: “... to shop.” (Use falling intonation.) “... to town to shop.” “... are going to town to shop.” “... Jane and I are going to town to shop.” “Tomorrow, Jane and I are going to town to shop.”
Variation: This exercise is especially helpful when practicing rising and falling intonation with questions. For example: “Is this going to be on the test?” (Use rising intonation.) “... on the test?” “... going to be on the test?” “Is this going to be on the test?”
Bear It
Objective: Identify and read Most Common Words (MCWs) aloud, and be the player with the highest number of Most Common Words Flashcards.
Materials: Button, coin, bean, or token for each player; Bear-It game board; Most Common Words Flashcards; one die.
Preparation: Copy one Bear-It game board (found online at www.rhaccelerate.com) for every two students or small group in the class. It is recommended that the board be copied on sturdy cardstock and, if possible, laminated.
To play: Place the Most Common Words Flashcards face-down in a draw pile. The first player shakes the die to determine the number of cards he must take from the MCWs draw pile. The player then reads each card aloud and moves one space for each word read correctly. If he can read only two of the cards, he may move only two places. Play stops immediately for that player when a word is missed. The next player then has a turn. If a player lands on a space with a picture, he follows the instructions for that picture at the bottom of the game board. Each player keeps the Most Common Words Flashcards he has read unless he lands on a picture that instructs him to return the words to the pile. If the draw pile runs out of cards before the game is over, players should count and record the number of cards they have accumulated, and then all cards should be shuffled and returned to a new draw pile. The player with the highest number of Most Common Words Flashcards at the end of the game is the winner.
Variation: Play with Alphabet Cards. Students must say the letter names and sounds.
