Sight words are short, common, “easy” words that young children can learn to recognize on sight (rather than sounding them out). Being familiar with sight words makes reading and comprehension easier for first graders, and it expands their vocabulary. While each child learns differently, most first graders know about 100 sight words. You can help your child learn more sight words by incorporating them into a variety of learning games and activities. In this article, we’ll share 200+ common first grade sight words, plus example sentences, activities to reinforce learning at home, and more. Read on to help your child read on, too!
First Grade Sight Words
- Common sight words for first grade include short, very common, easy-to-sound-out words like “a,” “my,” “such,” “down,” and “little.”
- Most first graders should have a solid grasp of about 100 sight words by the end of the year.
- Practice sight words with educational games at home or with online learning programs like ABCmouse® Early Learning Academy.
