Here is a simple sight word game that my students ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!
Sight words are written on realistic looking bugs. Students compete to "smack" the bug first with a flyswatter to collect 'bugs'. This game includes 9 pages of printable bugs as well as word cards for the 'caller'. I hope your students love smacking and learning their sight words in this engaging and fun format.

I tried to create this myself and it really wasn't nearly as cute as this. The words/bugs were a lot smaller in mine too. This will be so much better!

My first graders have been playing this in one of their reading workstations all week. They love it! I had some doubts about them independently working with the flyswatters, but they have been doing well. Thank you!

You are welcome. My firsties have played this since the beginning of the year, and they still love it. I've only had to replace ONE flyswatter! I hope you have a chance to visit my blog and download the free Transformers and Princess sight word games, they are another huge hit with my students!

Thanks so much! I can't wait to use this with my kids. Is there any way you get add some blank bugs so that we can add additional sight words that are not included?

Cute game. Can't wait to try it. How can I change the words to our vocabulary for that week? Also, what is your blog and how do I get to your website?

Thanks for your interest. I just reposted the smack a bug game and put a page of blank bugs on it. You might want to download it again to have those blank bugs to use for your spelling words. My blog is called Easy Peasy Classroom and it is http://easypeasyclassroom.blogspot.com/ Thank you so much for your interest. You can also click on the "Easy Peasy" name on the TpT page that shows my game and it should take you to my "store" where I have lots of freebies. Chery

Love this game! I'm just wondering if you have ever thought of doing it up with a dolch word list or adding a couple of empty bugs to the set so that a teacher could add some of the class focus words to the game. THANKS
March 11, 2012
Easy Peasy Primary Resources (TpT Seller)
Beth, Try downloading it again. I have added some blank bugs. I normally add blanks to my products so that teachers can differentiate for their students, I guess I forgot for this one! Check back as I've had several requests for "easier" word bugs. This is the one I use with my firsties in the second or third trimester. When I have a chance I will try to post one with primer and pre-primer words which would be great for the beginning of First grade or for Kinder. Thank you for your interest!
