What are Sight Words?
Sight words are commonly used words in the English language that are recommended to be learned by beginning readers to give them an advantage in their early stages of learning. Sight words are named such because they are often memorized by sight.
Sight words include words that cannot be represented using pictures and words that don't follow usual phonetic or spelling patterns. Several Sight word lists have been compiled, including the popular Dolch list by Edward William Dolch Ph. D., educator and proponent of the "Whole Word" method of reading instruction.
