Learning sight words is a foundational skill for Kindergarten (and other grades too!). What better way to keep the learning going than making a sight word wall at your home! After learning and practicing the sight word of the day, add it to the sight word wall! Practice reciting them each day, find sight words in text, draw the word in sensory materials—the list goes on!
Why is it important to learn sight words early? Sight words don’t always follow traditional letter sounds and the “sounding it out” method of decoding words. Teaching sight words gives early readers confidence to read because they recognize so many words while they are reading! Over 50% of written text is comprised of sight words!
