Let’s Learn Sight Words Together!

Hi there! I’m Jan, and my friend Jack is here too. We are going to have fun learning some special words called sight words. Sight words are words that help us read and write. Let’s get started!

Our Special Word: “am”

Today, we are going to learn the sight word “am.” Can you say it with me? “Am!” Great job! Now, let’s try saying it quietly: “am.” And now, let’s say it in our heads without making a sound. Ready? “Am.”

Finding the Missing Letters

Let’s play a game! Look at the word “am.” Can you tell me which letter is missing? Yes, it’s “am!” Now, let’s try with two missing letters. What are they? That’s right, “am!”

Mix and Fix the Word

Now, let’s mix up the letters and put them back in the right order. What letter comes first in “am”? It’s “a.” And what letter comes last? It’s “m.” You did it!

Why Sight Words Are Fun

I love learning sight words because they help me read and write. Do you like learning sight words too? They are like little friends that make reading easier and more fun!

We Did It!

We learned the sight word “am” today. Remember, sight words are important because they help us become better readers. Keep practicing, and soon you’ll know lots of sight words!

Thanks for learning with us. See you next time for more fun with words!

  • Can you think of a sentence using the word “am”? Maybe you can share it with a friend or family member!
  • Why do you think learning sight words like “am” is important when we read books or write stories?
  • Have you ever noticed sight words in your favorite storybook? Which ones do you remember seeing?
  1. Word Hunt Adventure: Go on a word hunt around your home or classroom! Look for the word “am” in books, magazines, or signs. Each time you find it, say the word out loud. How many times can you find “am” today? You can even make a list of all the places you found it!

  2. Build with Blocks: Use letter blocks or cards to build the word “am.” Mix up the letters and try to put them back in the correct order. Can you build other words that rhyme with “am,” like “jam” or “ham”? See how many new words you can create!

  3. Story Time Creation: Create a short story using the word “am.” Start with “I am…” and add what you are doing or feeling. For example, “I am happy because I am playing with my toys.” Draw a picture to go with your story and share it with a friend or family member.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:
