Sight Words 1-100 | English Phonics Course | Lesson 11/45

In this video, we will study the Fry's Sight Words- "The First 100".
Sight words are also known as high-frequency words. You are encouraged to memorize these as one whole word at sight. That is you should be able to pronounce these words as soon as you see them. These words may or may not have phonetic decoding. These words help in developing the speed and fluency while reading, as they do not require decoding of sounds. These are just memorized, in mind. By forming a list of these words, teachers help students to add these to their vocabulary. Phonics teaching that includes decoding of sounds, combined with sight words helps you to develop fast and accurate reading skills. Sight words are present in up to 80% of beginners printed materials that include G.K books, storybooks, curriculum books, and games. Sight words have been listed by many scholars, among which are the Dolch Sight Words and Fry’s Sight Words, both of which have been implemented by teachers in their school curriculum. We will be studying the Fry’s Sight Words and making sentences out of them.
