Super Sight Word Detectives!

Hello, amazing reader! Have you ever seen a picture of your best friend and known who it was right away, in a flash? You don't have to say, "Hmm, that's two eyes, one nose, one mouth..." You just see them and know them!

That's exactly what sight words are like! They are special "camera words." We don't need to sound them out letter by letter. Instead, we train our brains to take a quick picture, CLICK!, and know the word instantly. This makes reading so much faster and more fun! Let's get our word cameras ready for our new words.

We use in and it. The bug is in the jug. It is a big bug.

We use we and on. We can sit on the log.

We use he and she for people! He has a red cap. She has a pet pig.

Key Takeaway!

Sight words are words we know in a flash! We practice seeing them and saying them so our reading becomes smooth like a superhero flying through the sky!
