This collection of printable documents and PowerPoint shows provides elementary teachers with easy access to materials for reinforcing frequently used sight words. Includes vocabulary lists, flash cards, and a downloadable Dolch Word Book.

tag(s): sight words (22)

In the Classroom

Share the Dolch Words story on an interactive white board of projector, and allow students to take turns reading the lines. Be sure help your weaker readers and ESL students by sharing the vocabulary words prior to reading, either on a handout or by projecting on an interactive whiteboard and highlighting them in the text as you come to them. Practicing saying the words out loud can help students spot them quicker in the future. You can also use the printables of flashcards in a learning center or station, allowing students to practice with them individually or in groups.
