Quick mastery is a must for early reading success.
When I first started teaching, I have no recollection of teaching sight words.
I'm sure I did.
I HOPE I did.
Word walls didn't appear that long ago! Really!
I have a strong committment to not only have the kids learn their sight words and apply them not only to reading but into their writing as well.
I've just posted this in my store. I hope it bowls you over! Very helpful, fun, and easy to implement! It's a fun way to build fluency and foster classroom community. We sometimes use it during Morning Meeting too.

We often bowl during Morning Meeting to practice our words. Try it!
Hi, To teach kids learning is a very tough task especially for new teachers. With time it becomes easier and teaching sight words really helps in the learning process. Teaching a child to read is critical to their success in school as well as in life. While there are many different approaches to teaching a child to read, sight word instruction combined with phonics always works. English as second language students can greatly benefit from learning sight words. ESL students are at an advantage if they can recognize sight words. Thanks for sharing good books for sight words, I am sure "bowling for sight words" will be very helpful for teachers. Thanks for sharing such a helpful post.
