Where do sight words fit in to reading?
A sight word vocabulary is a store of words that a student can identify automatically (or by sight without a need to decode). Many people equate high frequency words (words that are frequently encountered when reading and writing like have and was) with sight word vocabularies. However, sight word vocabularies are comprised of all words that are known automatically, including high frequency words as well as decodable words. The goal is to help your students develop a considerable store of words they know by sight.
