Sight Word Fluency and Reading Intervention

March 21, 2015 misskindergarten 2 Comments

Sight word practice printables

Mastering sight words is such an important part of learning how to read. These are words that you will see in almost all of the books you will read. It is important to practice sight word fluency to help your students become better readers!

I *love* when we learn a new sight word and my kids start making connections, seeing that word around our classroom. Their eyes light up and they are so excited that they can READ! I get so excited too!

Sight word fluency practice pages

A few of my students were doing great reading their sight words in isolation, but were having a tougher time making the connections when seeing these words in print. I created these fun reading pages to help guide them with sight word fluency. They have repeated patterns to help ensure success and provide the much needed encouragement that young learners need when learning how to read.

Reading Sight Words Fluently in Isolation:

We start by touching and reading each sight word in isolation. This repetitive practice is great to help your students visually see the word while reading it out loud.

Then we use a yellow crayon to highlight the word in each sentence. This helps the kiddos to see the word in each sentence.

Reading the word "here" with fluency

Reading Fluency Practice:

After the students find the words, they read the sentences. I have them read each sentence 3 times to practice accuracy and fluency. They get to color a kid every time they read the sentences and they LOVE that!

While I am listening to a student in my small group read his/her sentences, the rest of the kiddos are writing their favorite sentence and illustrating a picture to show comprehension. Not only is it important for my students to be able to read their sight words in sentences, they also have to show that they understand what they are reading!

Showing comprehension with fluency

This resource includes over 150 sight words for your students to practice and continues to grow as I add more words to it! You can check it out in my shop below.

I’m working really hard to learn as much as I ca I’m working really hard to learn as much as I can about discrimination and racism and how to help teach my own daughters and my students how to continue making a change and moving in the right direction. I’m still learning. I make mistakes, and I learn more and more every single day. @misselgendy shared this post from @halpey1 and it really resonated with me. I thought it showed a great way to get your students involved in how they can help, not just on MLK day, or during Black History Month, but every day. Sometimes as a teacher and as an “influencer”, I feel pressured to do and say things that I’m not 100% confident with, but I’m learning. Just like I tell my students, continue to learn and continue to try your best. ❤️❤️❤️

What’s your all time favorite manipulative? I love how @playfullykindergarten uses and stores her mini erasers too!
