As you introduce new sight words, remember to review previously taught words. This objective does not undermine Dolch’s research but rather offers a clear cut strategy as to which words to introduce first. In fact, today it is recommended that by the end of first grade, students should be able to both read and write high frequency and sight words correctly. ![]() When faced with a list of 220 words, which ones do you initially select to teach a child to automatically recognize? Dolch must have asked himself this question too, because he categorized his word list into five groups:ĭeveloping a sight word vocabulary is critical to any child’s reading development. His findings were published in his book, Problems in Reading he identified 220 high frequency words that must be learn, so they can be automatically recognized upon sight. As a result, he analyzed the “best” word lists used by children. determined a need to ascertain which sight words would be the most valuable to a child learning to read. :) If you already purchased individual packs and are interested in the bundle, email me at materials have really worked to help a lot of my students.In the late 1940s, Edward William Dolch, Ph.D. ![]() You can save 40% buying this bundle over the individual packs. ![]() *I wanted to make this a great value for you. ***Resources for Sight Word Identification and Intervention:ĭolch Pre-Primer Sight Words Intervention Packĭolch Primer Sight Words Intervention Packĭolch First Grade Sight Words Intervention Packĭolch Second Grade Sight Words Intervention Packĭolch Third Grade Sight Words Intervention Packĭolch Sight Words Intervention Bundle (Pre-Primer through Third Grade)įree Sight Word Practice Worksheet TemplateĬolor by Sight Word Farm Animals Coloring Pages For example the words, "once" and "upon" both have a castle for a visual cue with the verbal cue, "Once upon a time." For words with similar or the same visual cues, I encourage students to use other cues such as the first letter of the word and the size of the word, to help them read the words. ***Across the different levels of sight words, and due to the abstract nature of some of the words, the same visual cues were used for more than one word on a few occasions. Included in the packet are more specific guidelines for how to use the materials for intervention. The idea is to use these flashcards until students are able to identify the all the words immediately, and then gently wean them off the visuals. Some of the sight words are abstract and were a little more difficult, so I came up with auditory cues to help students understand all the visuals and put everything together for them. For some of the sight words it was easy to come up with a visual to accompany the text. I do a multiple intelligences assessment on each of my students and so many of my students are visual learners, I wanted to give them a strategy that worked for them! Also, in a reading course I took while working towards my special education licensure, I read that when visuals are embedded in the materials, students are more likely to make the connection, so that is what I tried to do. I made flashcards to help students learn their sight words using visuals cues. I also included the I Heart Sight Words Graph in the zip file. Each pack contains sight word flashcards with visuals, auditory cues to accompany the flashcards, flashcards without visuals, a template for students to create their own flashcards with visuals, a template for students to create tactile flashcards (using glitter, screens and crayons, etc.), a checklist for progress monitoring, a graph for progress monitoring, guidelines for using the materials for intervention, and practice activity pages for each sight word that include a word search and writing practice. This zip file bundle includes all 5 sight word intervention packs (Pre-Primer, Primer, First Grade, Second Grade, and Third Grade) from my store. ![]()
