Letter Search Game

Letter Search Game for Beginners

I've just had a very successful experience teaching reading to an autistic elementary school kid using a very dynamic and entertaining game, which involves attention, movement, organizational skills and spelling training. 

It is especially good for kids who are still not 100% familiar with the alphabet or whose visual perception is weak. The game will help them to remember letters and familiar words spelling better. Please note, that the kids are supposed to be pre-taught the meanings of the words. 

The materials used are only paper and scotch. 

1. Choose a group of words to learn.

2. Spell out the words and create cards with all the letters used in these words, each on an individual card. 

3. Print the cards and cut them.

4. Stick the cards using scotch to the walls, board and other objects in the classroom as shown on the picture:

5. Ask your students to search for the first letter in the first word you want them to learn. 
6. Ask them to put it on the floor. 
7. Ask them to search for the next letter, and so on and so forth.
8. As a result, you will get the words you wanted to teach spelled out on the floor like this:

9. Repeat all the letters, read the words together.
10. Translate the words.
HAVE FUN!
