Sight Word Boxes

6/1/2021

   Helping students to learn "sight words" is important to reading success. Incorporating those words into reading, and reviewing them in class is good practice yet often does not offer enough exposure to the words to help students remember them readily.
    In my classroom I have students sitting in groups of four. In order to offer more exposure to the "sight words", I place a small basket in the middle of the group of the four students. Throughout the year as we introduce "sight words" I place a laminated index card with the word printed on it into the basket. The students spontaneously use the words to read by themselves, or to challenge their classmates at reading the words. I do no more than let the students know that I have placed new words into the baskets. Left to their own devices they naturally study the words. It really works!
