1st Grade Reading focuses on developing foundational reading skills, including phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension for young learners.
Sight words are words you see all the time when reading. They don’t always follow regular phonics rules, so you need to recognize them right away.
Knowing sight words helps you read faster and understand stories better. When you know these words, you don’t have to stop and sound them out every time.
Some common sight words are: the, and, you, said, was.

Spotting the word 'the' in every story you read
Reading a whole sentence smoothly because you know the sight words
Sight words are common words you need to recognize quickly when reading.
