Lesson Plan

Target Words:

  • fix
  • mix
  • six
  • bricks
  • chicks
  • sticks

Materials:

  • Glue
  • Picture cards
  • Twix candy bars (optional)

Overview
The children will “fix the six” as they recognize and produce words that rhyme with six, such as fix, mix, sticks, and bricks.
 
Literacy Activity

  • Have the children pick a picture card that rhymes with fix and rip the pictures into four small pieces.   
  • Help the children fix the rips by putting the pieces together like a puzzle and gluing them to a piece of paper. 
  • As they fix, have them chant, “Fix, fix, fix my ___ix!” 
  • Once their picture is fixed, invite them to do tricks with their picture (e.g., make it flip, make it dance).
  • Give the children a Twix for fixing their picture (optional). 

More Practice

  • Write the phrase, “Fix, fix, fix! Fix my ___ix!” on the board.
  • Point to each picture card, and have the children fill in the blank by saying the corresponding item (e.g., point to the chicks and have the children say, “Fix, fix, fix! Fix my chicks!”).
