What are Sight Words?

“A sight word is any word, not just a high frequency word, that is recognized and read upon sight.” — I absolutely love this definition from The Reading Teacher’s Top 10 Tools and couldn’t think of a better way to explain sight words myself!

Sight words are simple words that kids should be able to recognize as soon as they see them (within a couple seconds) and without having to use techniques such as “sounding out” the words.

The words we chose for our sight words Easter eggs are not your “usual” sight words that you’ll often see on lists of the “top 100” sight words.

We chose certain word endings that could match up with multiple letters to form many different words.

For example, the word ending “-at” can make a lot of different words such as bat, cat, sat, pat, hat, and mat. This creates a lot of possibilities for making matches with our Easter eggs!
