Even before entering kindergarten many kids are first exposed to sight words when they learn to recognize their name. They can also become familiar with common words by having parents read the same books over and over. Repetition is the key when teaching sight words.

Reading fluency can be negatively impacted if a child has to deliberate painfully and slowly over each and every word. When they can automatically recognize basic sight words it speeds up reading, which helps improve fluency and comprehension. And even more importantly, it builds their confidence and spurs them on to want to learn more.

Flash cards and sight word games can also help your kids learn faster and easier.
