Sight Words

 

Sight words are common words that schools expect kids to recognize instantly. Words like the, it, and and appear so often that beginning readers reach the point where they no longer need to try to sound out these words. They recognize them by sight.

 

We learn Dolch Sight words and start around the 3rd Marking Period (Usually the end of January). Here is a list of words we will learn this year.
