ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Preschool Prep Company Meet the Sight Words | 2 Minute Lesson | 9 Words!
Hi there! Today, we’re going to learn about something called “sight words.” Sight words are special words that we see and use all the time when we read and write. They are words like “the,” “and,” “it,” and “is.” These words are important because they help us read sentences more easily.
Sight words are important because they help us read faster. When we know these words by heart, we don’t have to stop and think about them. We can just read them quickly and understand what we’re reading. This makes reading fun and exciting!
Here are nine sight words that we can learn together:
“The” is a word we use a lot. For example, “The cat is cute.”
“And” helps us connect words. Like, “I have a dog and a cat.”
“It” is used to talk about something. “It is sunny today.”
“Is” helps us describe things. “The sky is blue.”
“You” is used when talking to someone. “You are my friend.”
“In” tells us where something is. “The toy is in the box.”
“To” is used when we go somewhere. “I go to school.”
“We” means you and me together. “We like to play.”
“Up” tells us the direction. “Look up at the sky.”
Now that we know these sight words, let’s practice them! You can try reading them in books or writing them on paper. The more you practice, the better you’ll get at reading!
Learning sight words is like a fun game. The more words you know, the more you can read and enjoy stories. Keep practicing, and soon you’ll be a reading superstar!
Sight Word Scavenger Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find objects that match the sight words. For example, find something that is “up” or something that is “in” a box. Take turns with a friend or family member to call out a sight word and see who can find an example first!
Sight Word Story Time: Create a short story using the sight words you learned. You can draw pictures to go along with your story. For example, “The cat and the dog are in the garden. It is sunny. We play and look up at the sky.” Share your story with a friend or family member and see if they can spot all the sight words.
Word Building with Blocks: Use letter blocks or magnetic letters to build the sight words. As you build each word, say it out loud and use it in a sentence. For example, build the word “the” and say, “The sun is bright.” This will help you remember how to spell and use each sight word.
