For parents: what Sight Word Sentences practices

Sight Word Sentences moves sight words into real reading: kids read whole sentences and use meaning and grammar to choose the right word. It pairs with:

Common Core: RF.K.3c (read high-frequency words by sight), RF.K.4 (read emergent-reader texts with purpose), RF.1.4.

Getting the most out of it

Games are best as a reward or a warm-up, not the main lesson. Ten minutes of play after a short lesson works better than an hour of play on its own.
