Sight Words

Sight words are words that should be recognized and read automatically without sounding them out. These words appear in stories we read and other texts quite often. Being able to recognize and read them quickly will allow your child to focus on other unknown words, therefore improving reading fluency and making reading less difficult. Each quarter, we focus on a new set of sight words in class. Throughout the quarter, children will be assessed on words they know. Check out the "Fun Websites" tab for links to websites that you can use for sight word practice.
