Description
Sight Words
Sight Words is for beginning readers. These words should be known after the first two years at school.
In the post 100 Sight Words I make some points.
- Firstly, knowing these words speeds up the child’s literacy and gets them reading text quickly. A child then sees the words in sentences that make sense.
- Most of the words are not irregular, even though many writers claim they are. About 20% are irregular and the rest follow spelling rules – even though they follow any one of about 22 rules.

There are ten lists of words in two pages. They range from the easiest words such as I and it to the harder words like love and first. I have colour coded them myself.
