This free printable high frequency (sight words) list gives the 100 most common words used in English.
Sight words are common words in the English language that a reader is expected to recognize immediately, without having to decode the word by sounding it out. These words are considered sight words because they are meant to be memorized through repeated exposure and memorization, rather than learned through the use of phonics and decoding. Some examples of common sight words include: the, and, I, to, you, a, in, is, it, of, that, etc.
Sight words are important for early readers because they make up the majority of the words found in most texts, including books, articles, and news stories. When a reader is able to quickly recognize sight words, it allows them to focus their attention on comprehending the meaning of a text, rather than getting bogged down by decoding individual words.
There are various techniques and activities that can be used to help children learn sight words. For example:
- Flashcards;
- Word walls;
- Word games as BINGO
The 100 sight words Flashcards are from the Dolch, McREL, and Fry word lists.
I was always trying to find fun ways to teach ‘Sight Words’ and expand the receptive and expressive vocabulary for many children. When working with children who are not at a reading level (severe language delayed, Cerebral Palsy or children on the spectrum, etc., you will have a difficult time finding a product of these words in a visual form. I hope you will find this work a wonderful tool in your practice of expressive and receptive language with your clients. I am sure the 100 words and the apps I created for teaching them will work wonderfully.
