sight word lists

Sight word lists are curated collections of common words that children are encouraged to recognize instantly without needing to sound them out. These words often appear frequently in reading materials and often do not follow regular phonetic rules. The purpose of these lists is to help learners develop reading fluency and comprehension by quickly recognizing these words, thereby reducing decoding effort and increasing comprehension speed. Sight word lists are typically used in early childhood education as a foundation for developing reading skills and confidence.
