Ideas for Teaching Sight Words

Amanda Leger | Wichita Collegiate School | Wichita, KS
Sight Words are common English words that can't be sounded out, so they have to be memorized. Here are some easy yet effective ideas for using songs, flashcards, and a game to help children learn and recognize sight words.
Teach for Life is a global movement of people sharing knowledge to better educate our children and create hope for the world. Find more educational videos, learn more about the movement, or learn how to participate at teachforlife.org/

I'm a 24 year veterans teacher. I've taught K-2. SIGHT WORDS CAN BE TAUGHT TO SOUND OUT. Look up the Science of Reading and Heart words. You can explicitly teach them and map them out. 😀

[@TeachforLifeOrgMovement]

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you sharing your experience and additional resources.

[@tammyramey]

I agree!

[@christian1172-z9e]

I taught 0:48 my kids to read using an old phonics book. They only learned one sight word - the word eye. That’s it! They sounded out everything else left to right.

[@useridgaf979]

How and what is your resource?

[@christian1172-z9e]

@@useridgaf979 I used a rewriting of a 1800th century phonics book. They didn’t use sight words because most of the time we think words are spelled wrongly, we are actually pronouncing it wrongly. I taught my kids how they used to be pronounced. For example the word “one” comes from alone. We would pronounce it with a long O, and then show how the pronunciation changed. Or the word “said” is the past tense of “say”. If you pronounce it “sayed” it is actually spelled phonetically. That sort of thing. After awhile, my kids got a feel for how things used to be pronounced. We also read it old literature, so they were immersed in how English has changed in an informal way.
I don’t think reading has to be taught like that. I’m not against some sight words, but I think some teachers over estimate how many exceptions to the rules we have in English.
The lady who wrote the book I used never got around to publishing it. She used it to tutor at local schools.
Most programs based on the research Orton -gillingham are good. There’s a FB page called the “Science of Reading” and they have lots of good info.

[@ms.bubs4fun506]

I really like that you explained that the pronunciation depends on what region you're from. Some people automatically assume something is pronounced wrong if it's not pronounced the same way as their part of the country.

[@TeachforLifeOrgMovement]

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy it was helpful.

[@timtranslates]

The other problem with the short words with a schwa is that we tend to de-schwa them when reading them in isolation.

[@EnglishTeachingGamesByMuxi]

Teaching sight words is always a challenge in the beginning . But yeah as you said , they have to memorize it. I mostly creat some chants for some of them and they’re super simple and interesting for kids.

[@TeachforLifeOrgMovement]

I cannot tell you how many hours I've been looking for examples to teach sight words to one of my students. They're already doing a great job with some, but I feel like the dice game might be a hit for them! THANK YOU for this!!

Make flash cards and play games with them . Use the words in a sentences too. Make sure you teach your child the sounds for each letter. RUclips has videos called bandunamu and they are so fun and educational and they do the alphabets and sounds ( look for the one that does the ABC's). We are addicted to bandunamu.My 3 year old has mastered 80 site words and is reading level A books. Good luck!

[@dyslexiaslittleandbigdeald9229]

That is a phenomenal question. I'm very into that exact ides because many sight words don't have much meaning without personally xinnecting it to the child. I have a whole theory on it, but firstly, you create a meaningful rhyme with it that connects with the child personally. www.visionaryreading.com

I have been having a difficult time teaching my daughters sight words. They forget the word as soon as they read it. And everytime we go back to it, it's like a new word all over again.
They're 5 and 7. I don't know what to Do.. it's like no matter how much we practice the same 6 words, the next time we go over them, the information is lost again.
How do I know if my kids have a learning disability, and is it possible to even teach a child with a disability like dyslexia or apraxia of speech to read? My almost 8 yr old daughter is at a level 2.. the teacher told me the rest of her class is at a level 17! I am getting really worried. And it seems like the teacher has given up and put it all on me to teach her.. when I have absolutely no idea how to help her.

[@TeachforLifeOrgMovement]

So sorry to hear you are having problems.

[@stacywhitaker5920]

Most of these words are fully decodeable. Students she be explicitly taught the /TH/ and /th/ phonograms as well as the schwah sound. Words do not need to be memorized, they make complete sense with proper reading instruction.

[@ScottClifton1]

True, Stacy. This video is well intentioned, but this sight word method is exactly what has led to what is labeled as "dyslexia" in children. Memorizing words leads to wiring the brain into trying to guess instead of decoding--the ONLY way reading in English can be properly taught.

[@pariinprairie348]

Thanks for this, Stacy. I know my child will reject anything without a logical explanation, so was wondering how I would be doing this. For the same reason, she finds it difficult to associate a name to the sound (why the cuh sound should be called cee!). For now, she is fairly fluent in basic blending including oo, ee, ch and sh. Can you point me towards what I should do next and any recommendations for online resources? Thanks in advance.

[@luzceniceros4349]

Not all words can be phonetically decoded. Thought? Through? Said? Some just need to be memorized for fluency.

[@ScottClifton1]

@@luzceniceros4349 The point she was making, I think, is that 99% of English words *are* decodable, and that the sight word method is simply not a legitimate way of teaching reading. Memorizing the 26 letters and 44 sounds takes care of an overwhelming majority of reading; trying to memorize tens of thousands of words leads to dyslexia diagnoses, spelling failure, and lack of reading comprehension, all of which were virtually unknown in literate nations before the advent of "look-see" methods.
