*Words in blue may not be
covered but feel free to continue to work further with your child.
Please
work on these words at home 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.
