Why Sight Words Are Important
Sight words are foundational to reading success. These words appear frequently in texts and often do not follow standard phonetic rules, making them challenging for young readers. By mastering Dolch sight words, students can:
- Improve Reading Fluency: Recognizing sight words automatically allows students to read more smoothly and quickly.
- Enhance Comprehension: When students don’t have to decode every word, they can focus on understanding the meaning of the text.
- Build Confidence: Mastering sight words boosts students’ confidence in their reading abilities, encouraging them to tackle more complex texts.
