The purpose of this list is to provide children with an understanding of frequently used terms in the English language by providing them with visual recognition through memorization and repetition. These words include nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs and adjectives. The Dolch word lists is made up of 220 commonly used words that are important for young children to learn in order to read fluently. Knowing commonly used sight words makes it easier to understand longer, more complex texts later on down the road! Overall, learning sight words can help build confidence while providing the necessary foundation for successful literacy development in children. Sight word memorization also allows students to focus on understanding what they’re reading instead of trying to sound out every single word they encounter. Such recognition of these common terms leads to an increase in reading speed and fluency. Developing a familiarity with sight words helps young readers recognize them more easily in stories and other texts. If your child doesn’t have Do A Dot Markers then don’t worry, just have them color it in.Sight words are commonly used in everyday language, and therefore are important to learn. They are not messy to use and provide an artistic twist to the activity.

How much work do your students or children do with their crayons and pencils? Too much! My daughter enjoys using Do A Dot Markers. I chose to add multiple tools to be used with these Pre K sight words worksheets to make it fun. My kids use it for drawing and crafting too.

That’s why I came up with this sight word printable activity pack. I wanted my 5-year-old to take notice of each letter that made up the sight word so that I could ingrain the word subconsciously into her brain. My goal was to try and have my daughter see the sight word a few times versus just repeating the sight words after me. I came up with some fun interactive sight word worksheets. As my 5-year-old daughter started Kindergarten at her private school she started to go through word lists each week.
