Sight word practice for first grade
48 Fun Sight Word Activities That Work
Teachers are always on the hunt for great sight word activities. Sight words are any words readers recognize automatically “by sight”—for fluent readers, that’s almost all words! High-frequency words, the most commonly occurring words in written English like those on the Dolch list, are often thought of as the most crucial sight words.
It’s a myth that blindly memorizing every letter in a sight word is the only way to learn it. The science of reading tells us that linking sounds and letters is the most effective way for kids’ brains to learn any word. Many common words are easy to tackle using beginning phonics skills (like “at,” “can,” “him,” etc.), so staying true to a strong phonics curriculum is one way to support kids’ sight word learning. Even irregularly spelled words have decodable parts, e.g., kids can use the sounds of “s” and “d” to help with “said,” even if the “ai” is unexpected. Experts often call these words “heart words” to call out for kids that they should learn the unexpected word parts “by heart. ” (If all this is unfamiliar to you, it can feel overwhelming, but you’ve got this! Check out teaching guru Jillian Starr’s explanation for more help.)

Today, I’m sharing fun first grade sight words worksheets, games, and lists of words kids can practice.
First graders have been in the reading game for at least a year by the time they reach this grade level.
Their reading skills have improved just by mastering the pre-k and kindergarten sight words lists. Needless to say, learning sight words should be part of their routine at this point!
Sight words are common words that children will have a hard time reading if they do not have them memorized by sight. These words are not phonetic and cannot be “sounded out” or decoded using the letter sounds. Sight words, and high fluency words, will be a part of their school routine for the next few years!

We are going to the first grade with the little one. Therefore, I found this list:
List of recommended literature for grade 1 under the program "Perspective"
A child learns a lot from books, so reading should be encouraged and supported. Oddly enough, mothers mostly read to babies, and from the age of three, books begin to fade into the background, it is sad to realize this. On the contrary, the circle of books should expand, because the child is now able to understand more complex things, he can now feel and live the book along with its characters. Reading with parents and reading on your own will help you perform better in class at school. But what should a first grader read? This article lists school literature for reading in the first grade under the "Perspective" program. The list is based on what works will be mentioned in school textbooks for this program. On our site you can find audio versions of these books.
