Sight words play a critical role in the development of reading skills. They are high-frequency words that appear frequently in written texts and are often difficult to sound out phonetically. Learning sight words allows young readers to quickly recognize and read them fluently. This allows children to focus their mental energy on decoding more challenging words.

Sight words provide a foundation for reading comprehension. When children can effortlessly identify common sight words, they can devote more attention to understanding the meaning behind the text rather than struggling with individual word recognition.

Teaching sight words is a unique journey for every child, as no one method is guaranteed to work for every child. Each learner is different and will respond to various techniques.
