Please work on these words daily with your child.
Sight words are high-frequency words seen often in
print. Many of these words are difficult to sound out
and thus require some memorization. Sight word
recognition is very important in developing reading
fluency--the speed/rate at which your child reads.
The better the fluency, the easier it will be for your
child to comprehend what has been read.
