The Dolch Sight Words list is the most commonly used set of sight words. Educator Dr. Edward William Dolch developed the list in the 1930s-40s by studying the most frequently occurring words in children’s books of that era. The list contains 220 “service words” plus 95 high-frequency nouns. These words comprise 80% of the words you would find in a typical children’s book and 50% of the words found in writing for adults. Once a child knows this list of words, it makes reading much easier, because the child can then focus his or her attention on the remaining words.

The Dolch words are commonly divided into groups by grade level, ranging from pre-kindergarten to third grade, with a separate list of nouns. There are a total of 315 Dolch Sight Words.

Sight Words – Learn to Read

Beginning High Frequency Words

Irregular Words are spelled irregularly. Irregular words can also be high frequency. Examples are: of, does, psychic, choir. Irregular words

Explanation Video for Teacher

Map sounds to letters when learning words.

– What are the individual sounds that make up the word?
– How is each sound represented by letters?

Mapping sounds to letters for the word “they”

When many words are read automatically, fluency is developed and comprehension is boosted.

Teach Common sight words along with the skills in the phonics steps 1-10

Sight Words are words learners need to recognize instantly by sight (like identifying their own name).

It is important for beginning learners to start by learning a handful of the most common words.

Beginning High Frequency Words: These are the first words learners need to know automatically. These are words that may or may not be irregular, but are so common we need to know them by sight. Say a word, figure out the individual sounds in the word, then map (connect) each sound to the letter(s) that represent it. See mapping example in teacher resources

Irregular Words: Some of our oldest and most common words have changed through the centuries so the spelling and pronunciation no longer match (ie. said). These can be tricky since there are sounds being represented un unusual ways. However, the key is still to focus attention on the sounds in the word and what letters are representing them. For example the word “said” has 3 sounds /s/, /ĕ/, /d/. These sounds are represented by s ai d. It is unusual for ai to represent the /ĕ/ sound, but noticing how each sound is represented is key to remembering the word. See mapping example in teacher resources. Find irregular sight words here.

Bundle: Additional various activities to practice a specific skill
Pack: Additional multiple versions of a specific activity to practice a specific skill

We need to know common words, especially common “cheater” words, automatically by sight. If we stopped to think about reading the word “the” every time we came to it, reading would be laborious and difficult, and comprehension will suffer.

Mixed Sight Word Practice

Use the flashcards to practice and then show one phrase at a time for learner to read.
Add key words or pictures to the flashcards to make phrases like: “on the cap 🧢” “on the butterfly 🦋.” Or create “funny sentences” like: The cat 🐈‍⬛ is on the cap 🧢. The mom 👩🏽‍⚖️ in on the butterfly 🦋.

Map Sounds to Letters

First map the sounds in the word to the letters representing the sounds, even if it is not a letter combination that has been taught yet. *Mapping the sounds to the letters is how we remember what words look like* See example below:

Be sure to reinforce what you know and are learning about words:
Schwa Sound: Any vowel might say /u/. Point out this happens in many common words like: the, of, was, some, from…
Open Syllable: Many common words are open syllables where there is one vowel and it can escape so it says it’s name like: she, me, he, I, go, no….

Be sure to provide the words at first! Practice on a beat:

3 Beats for new words:
Beat 1: Show Word
Beat 2: Teacher Says Word
Beat 3: Learner Says Word

2 Beats for known words:
Beat 1: Show Word
Beat 3: Learner Says Word

It is important to learn and practice sight words this way so students are not verbalizing incorrect answers while looking at the word, not talking over the teacher, and giving all students a beat of think time. Encourage students to hold their answer in their heads until it is time to answer on the beat (and not before!)

Strategies

Same as for Sounds and Chunks

Working on new words (or sounds) with flashcards (Work on about 90% known words/sounds and about 10% new words/sounds. We need to keep practicing the known words for weeks and months so they become an automatic part of our long term memory.)
Ideas for introducing and practicing sight words
Flashing Words
Timing Students
Use spaced retrieval practice for memorizing. Use flashcards to have the learner “retrieve” the information. Practice for short periods of time and space them out! Practice a couple minutes many times each day rather than 15 minutes once a day. I used to have cards in the kitchen so my own kids could go through them quickly at meal and snack times. *Spaced retrieval has been proven to produce more long-lasting learning.
