     High Frequency Words

          
              High Frequency words also know as sight words are common words that a reader should recognize on "sight' or instantly. High Frequency words will play an important role in your child's early childhood education and impact your child's reading efficiency and reading development.  Knowing how to read and spell these words instantly and automatically will help your child develop into an efficient and smooth reader.
     
             To learn High Frequency words a child will want to have them memorized because these words can't be sounded out.  I will post the new high frequency words on this page as we learn them in class.  When you read with your child have them point out the high frequency words to you to help reinforce learning.
