Sight Words & Reading

As we all know, sight words are an important part of the learning to read. As Mr. W becomes more confident with each word his ability to read stories by himself gets stronger and stronger. We started off with list and flash cards, and now have moved on to using these colourful popsicle sticks to keep things interesting and fun. Some times we play games with them to mix things up a bit. One game is to randomly pick 5-7 sticks out of the pile. Lay them out and try to make a funny sentence out of them.
