Are you looking for ways to make your phonics lessons more engaging? Try these easy ways to gamify your phonics activities and get your students up and moving! Here are five fun games to play with any phonics posters that will reinforce reading skills and make learning fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t have posters? Make your own! Write the target skill or phonics spelling pattern on a sheet of paper. These no-prep games are easy to add to your phonics lessons and they\u2019re also perfect to do during recess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start by deciding which phonics patterns to focus on for this game. Choose a few students to hold the phonics posters and have them spread out around the room. The rest of the students will choose a phonics pattern and write a word in that pattern on a sticky note.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the teacher says Go!, students put their sticky notes on the correct poster. Make this game a little sillier by having students stick the sticky notes on the students holding the posters instead of the actual poster (as long as students are comfortable with this, of course!).<\/p>\n\n\n
