Meet the Sight Words: “Are”

Hi there, little friend! Today, we’re going to learn about a special word. This word is “are.” Let’s have some fun and learn together!

What is a Sight Word?

Sight words are words that we see and use a lot when we read and write. They are like our reading friends that help us understand sentences better. The word “are” is one of these special sight words.

Let’s Learn the Word “Are”

The word “are” is used when we talk about more than one thing. For example, if you have two toys, you can say, “The toys are fun!”

Practice with “Are”

Let’s try using “are” in some sentences:

  • The cats are sleeping.
  • The flowers are pretty.
  • The stars are shining.

Fun Activity

Now, let’s play a game! Look around your room and find two things. Can you make a sentence using “are”? Maybe you see two books. You can say, “The books are on the table.”

Keep Practicing!

Remember, the more you practice, the better you’ll get at using sight words like “are.” Try to find “are” in your favorite storybooks or when you’re talking with your family.

Great job today! Keep learning and having fun with words!

  • Can you think of a time when you used the word “are” today? What did you say, and who were you talking to?

  • Why do you think sight words like “are” are important when we read and write? How do they help us understand stories better?
  1. Word Hunt Adventure: Go on a word hunt around your home or classroom! Look for items that come in pairs or groups. For example, you might find two shoes or three apples. Once you find them, make a sentence using the word “are.” For instance, “The shoes are on the floor.” Share your sentences with a friend or family member!

  2. Picture Story Time: Draw a picture of a scene with multiple objects or people. It could be a park with children playing or a kitchen with fruits on the table. After drawing, write a sentence about your picture using “are.” For example, “The children are playing.” Show your picture and sentence to your teacher or classmates.

  3. Storybook Search: Choose a storybook you like and read it with a grown-up. As you read, listen carefully and try to find the word “are.” Each time you hear it, clap your hands! After reading, talk about the sentences where you found “are” and what they mean.
