READING IN FAMILIES

Sight Word Recognition

As you’re sitting here reading this article, chances are that you aren’t thinking for long about each individual word. You’re simply recognizing the words “on sight” because they are familiar to you. Hence, you are “sight reading”.

For children, sight word recognition is an important step to being able to efficiently learn to read. If they don’t have to stop and consider what each word is, they will have the freedom to comprehend the meaning and context of sentences and paragraphs. Consequently, it’s critical for parents, babysitters, guardians, grandparents and educators to help beginning readers learn to instantly identify words.

ACTIVITIES TO GO WITH FICTION

 

 

Listen to Charlotte's Web.  Hear E.B. White read from his book, virtually visit his farm (in the “Down East” part of Maine) and watch a spider, like Charlotte, spin a web. Also learn how she catches (and eats) food, observe how she lays eggs and find out how her wingless babies (called spiderlings) can “fly” (or “balloon”) from the place where they were hatched.  http://www.awesomestories.com/site_map/Movies/charlotte_web.htm
