Why Sight Words Are Important

Sight words are the most common words in English, making up a large part of everything children read. Many, like the, was and you, do not follow regular phonics rules, so children must learn them by memory. Knowing sight words instantly lets children read sentences smoothly instead of stopping to sound out every word.

Strong sight word recognition is one of the biggest boosts to early reading fluency.

How to Practise Sight Words

Print on A4 and practise a small set of words at a time. Have the child trace, read aloud, and then spot the word in a sentence. Repetition is key, so revisit the same words across several days until they are known instantly.

Flashcards and reading simple storybooks alongside the worksheet speed up learning.
