Meet the Sight Words Level 1 – “is”

What is a Sight Word?

Hi there! Today, we are going to learn about a special word called a “sight word.” Sight words are words that we see and read a lot. They help us read sentences quickly and easily. One of the first sight words we will learn is “is.”

Learning the Word “is”

The word “is” is very small, but it is super important! We use “is” to talk about something or someone. For example, we can say, “The cat is happy,” or “The sun is bright.”

Practice Makes Perfect

Let’s practice using the word “is” together! Can you think of a sentence with the word “is”? How about, “The dog is playful,” or “The sky is blue”? Great job!

Fun Activities with “is”

Here are some fun activities you can do to remember the word “is”:

  • Word Hunt: Look for the word “is” in your favorite storybook. How many times can you find it?
  • Sentence Builder: Make up silly sentences using the word “is.” For example, “The dinosaur is dancing!”
  • Draw and Tell: Draw a picture and tell a story about it using the word “is.” Maybe draw a picture of a rainbow and say, “The rainbow is colorful.”

  1. Nature Walk Observation: Take a walk outside with a grown-up and look around. Can you find things that you can describe using the word “is”? For example, you might see a tree and say, “The tree is tall,” or see a bird and say, “The bird is singing.” Share what you find with your friends or family!
  2. Is It True? Play a game with a friend or family member where you take turns saying sentences using the word “is.” The other person has to decide if the sentence is true or silly. For example, “The grass is green” (true) or “The fish is flying” (silly). Have fun and see who can come up with the silliest sentence!
  3. Picture Match: Cut out pictures from old magazines or draw your own. Make a matching game by writing sentences with the word “is” on separate pieces of paper. For example, “The apple is red.” Match the sentence to the correct picture. This will help you remember how to use “is” in sentences.
