When teaching and/or reviewing sight words, sometimes we use a sight word path (this also works well in the hallway). I write the sight words on index cards and place them on the floor, the kids walk the path reading the sight words aloud (it's great to laminate them first for reuse). If you have a group of kids, you can have one child go until they misread a word and then stop and the next child starts and so on.
The can also walk the path with a clipboard and record certain words (like all the words beginning with 'c,' etc). There are many variations, including integrating laying them out and collecting them into the reading of them, hopping, pointing with a yard stick, or taping them down for extended use.
