READING IN
FAMILIES
Sight Word
Recognition
As you’re
sitting here
reading this
article,
chances are
that you
aren’t
thinking for
long about
each
individual
word. You’re
simply
recognizing
the words
“on sight”
because they
are familiar
to you.
Hence, you
are “sight
reading”.
For
children,
sight word
recognition
is an
important
step to
being able
to
efficiently
learn to
read. If
they don’t
have to stop
and consider
what each
word is,
they will
have the
freedom to
comprehend
the meaning
and context
of sentences
and
paragraphs.
Consequently,
it’s
critical for
parents,
babysitters,
guardians,
grandparents
and
educators to
help
beginning
readers
learn to
instantly
identify
words.

ACTIVITIES TO GO WITH FICTION
Listen to Charlotte's
Web. Hear E.B. White read from
his book, virtually visit his farm (in
the “Down East” part of Maine) and watch
a spider, like Charlotte, spin a web.
Also learn how she catches (and eats)
food, observe how she lays eggs and find
out how her wingless babies (called
spiderlings) can “fly” (or “balloon”)
from the place where they were hatched.
