While drilling with flash cards works well for memorizing new sight words, review can also be done by pointing out previously-learned sight words in books when you and your child are doing shared reading.For first grade, we opted to do the “Virtual Public School” through our elementary school. Be sure to regularly review the sight words that your child has already learned, not just the new ones, to make sure they don't forget the previously-learned words. Once your child has memorized those, introduce several more. Start by introducing three to five sight words. Select words that are in your child's vocabulary so they understand what the words mean and/or how they are used, and coordinate with your child's classroom teacher and/or SLP to make sure everyone is working on the same words at the same time. You can find word lists and flash card sets with the 100 most frequent sight words. Sight word recognitionHelping your child recognize commonly occurring sight words - and even introducing those words into speech practice if there are words that are difficult for the child to say - can help your child with reading fluency.
