Sight words, or high-frequency words, are the words that are most often used in books and texts. These words, such as, and, the, is, at, etc. are difficult to figure out using reading strategies like checking the picture. Students practice these words daily at school, and we strongly encourage them to continue practicing at home. Fluent readers must be able to read and write their sight word automatically. Daily practice is essential! The Spelling City website is a great way to practice sight words in a fun game-style format: *Spelling & Vocabulary City For more practice try the *First Grade Sight Word Games on this website and check out the sight word video links at the bottom of this page!
