What are Sight Words?

Before we dive in deeper, let's get to know what sight words are first. Cheryl Lyon explains that sight words are words that students are supposed to recognize immediately. When the learners become mundane to these words, they no longer need to stop reading and trying to guess the word. The result is, the students can read smoothly without any struggles. This will lead them to understand the topic better. Some study experts refer to the word that regularly appears in students' reads as a high-frequency word. These high-frequency words are the words that will become sight words.

Lyon also recommends using Three-Part Strategy to teach children about sight words. First, the teacher shall start with sound-letter mapping. Next, the teacher can use a flashcard from our Sight Words Worksheets for 5th Grade to engage in a flashcard activity in the classroom. Last, make sure to continue reinforcing the target sight words with repeated exposure. You can use many kinds of activities, so the students will not feel bored.

What is the Importance of Sight Words?

While we teach the young learners about sight words, the students will store the vocabulary in their long-term memory. Some studies stated that most readers need around one to four-word exposure, to store the words in their long-term memory. Dini Amalia stated in her paper the importance of mastering sight words for students. She said, by mastering sight word recognition, students will enhance their reading efficiency and fluency. Mastering sight words will activate the learners' observation of the meaning and pronunciation. This process unavoidably will increase the students' competence in reading and perceiving the text.

What is the Effect of Sight Words on Children's Reading Abilities?

Learning sight words will prepare the students to be a competent readers. Even though there are many other strategies to be a fluent reader, learning sight words is proven to be the base foundation for students to become adequate readers. Colleen Hayes wrote, sight words are also one of the most recommended reading strategies to be working with struggling students and children with disabilities.

Sight words can be taught by parents at home or by preschool teachers as an early literacy skill. Parents and teachers can download and use our Sight Words Worksheets, and use them to teach the kids. This will prepare the children when they have to read a complex text when they start formal school. Acquiring the sight words will also give the students more confidence in reading, this will become the self-motivation for the children to learn more.

What are the Types of Sight Words?

Mainly, sight words are divided into two categories, frequently used words and non-phonetic words. Frequently used words are words that constantly appear in the text, such as it, can, will, the, and more. Meanwhile, non-phonetic words are words that cannot be decoded phonetically, such as buy, talk, and come. These two types of sight words are the most common type mentioned by the experts.

There are other types of sight words we can find, which are Dolch Sight Words, Fry Sight Words, and Top 150 Words. Dolch Sight Words is a list of sight words found by William Dolch, which consists of frequently used words in a children's book. Fry Sight Words are a more modern word list that is based on familiar words to show up in children's books. The Top 150 Written Words are the most recent word list that consists of 150 words we usually find in English text. 

How do You Teach Sight Words?

Children can learn about sight words both in school and at home. Here are some ways how teachers and parents can teach sight words to young learners. First, teachers and parents need to get the children to know about sight worlds as early as possible. Second, you can start with reading a children's book by a read-aloud method and make it into a more interactive activity. Third, it is good to enhance the children's multi-sensories while learning sight words.  Fourth, try to group the sight words into some categories. Fifth, make into daily activities with the read-and-play sight word activities.

How to do Sight Word Assessment?

In order to know whether sight word learning has been effective or not, we can determine through assessment. How do we assess sight word learning? First, we need to remember that different types of sight words also need a different assessment. Before you do an assessment, make sure that the children are already practising enough. The assessment can be done individually and in a group. The group assessment will be triggering the students' teamwork and critical thinking. Teachers can use Sight Words Worksheets for 5th Grade as a practice sheet before the assessment or as the assessment sheet itself.
