About Sight Word Games
While learning phonics is an important skill for beginning readers, sight words is another.
Why learn words by sight?
Simply put, there are some words (also called high frequency words) that appear so frequently in reading that we want our readers to know them automatically, by sight. Just the first 100 words of Fry’s word list make up nearly 50% of what we read. Wow!
Knowing these words automatically helps to increase fluency, which can also build comprehension and understanding.
Sight Word Lists
The two most commonly used word lists for sight words are the Dolch word lists and Fry’s word lists. This Reading Mama has combined the two lists. They can be printed off for free on her blog (see link below).

This app is great. We got it because my daughter was struggling with her sight words at school. It hasn't even been a week and she has completely caught up and mastered her sight word list for the month. I LOVE that you can customize their own list of words. The games are super fun too and easy for big and little kids. My daughter is 4 and loves hangman. The only negative is I wish the one letter words were included in this app as well like "I" and "A". They're obviously easier ones but they still need the practice as those ones as words (instead of just letters) as well. I hope they get added eventually because they're on her sight word list! Overall though, fantastic app, definitely recommend.
