Plant Reading

I printed off 4 sheets of paper to make a little book:
1. A game page. I made a list of 4 words and cut the words out for her: plant, flower, tree, grass. I had her sound out each word, and then glue them next to a picture of each. ("plants" went at the top as the page label).
2. A picture of a tree, and the sentence to read: The tree is big.
3. Flower picture: The flower is red.
4. Grass picture: The grass is green.

I want her mainly to grasp "the" and "is" as sight words, in addition to continued practice sounding things out.

I'm making similar sheets for flowering plants (tulip, rose, daffodil), gymnosperms (pine, cone, needle), and one with moss and fern. Again, the main goal is to practice sounding out words she doesn't know and to reinforce basic words as sight words.
