The Sight Word Puzzles – Level 4 set helps students develop sight word recognition, word-building skills, and fine motor coordination through an engaging, hands-on activity. Each puzzle features a high-frequency word from the Wonder Words program, broken into individual letters, requiring students to piece together the word correctly.
The 25 sight words included in Level 4 are:
came, made, little, over, there, well, as , come, too, play, look, into, right, down, much, your, now, from, by, make, of, their, very, could, where.
These puzzles are perfect for literacy rotations, independent practise, home learning, or small-group interventions.
