About this resource

Description

Talking about sports is a fun way for children to build vocabulary they use every day at recess, in gym class and at home. These sports flash cards help Preschool through 3rd Grade students learn the names of 18 sports, from soccer and basketball to skiing, surfing and rowing. Each picture shows the gear for one sport, so children connect the word with the ball, racket, skate or board they see.

The sports flash cards fold over. The front shows a bright picture of the sport’s equipment, and the inside shows the sport word with one short sentence about how it is played. Younger children look and name the sport, then open the card to check. Older students read the word and the sentence and explain the sport to a partner. A Kindergarten practice page asks children to read each sport word and circle the matching picture.

What’s Included

  • A colorful cover and a How to Use page with steps and sorting ideas
  • 18 fold-over sports cards on 6 sheets: picture outside, word and sentence inside
  • A Kindergarten practice worksheet: read the word, circle the picture
  • An answer key with the full card list and the practice answers

Why These Flash Cards Help Kids

First, matching a picture to a word builds sight vocabulary that children can use in writing and conversation. Second, the short sentences teach what each sport involves, which supports physical education lessons and healthy habits. Third, the cards work for many ages, from naming games with preschoolers to reading and explaining with 3rd graders.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Use these physical education flash cards in a word wall, a writing center, or a PE warm-up. Hold up a card and have children act out the sport, sort the cards into ball and no-ball sports, or ask each child to pick a favorite and write two sentences about it. They also make a great conversation starter before a class field day.
