What are Sight Words?

We have sight words worksheets that are helpful for students to learn to read these commonly used words in the English language. While they are commonly used they are not easy to sound out. These words are also known as high-frequency words, and need to be quickly understood even when they don’t follow normal spelling patterns. These words typically appear in a school curriculum or in a list of commonly used words, and they are often studied in order to facilitate quick, accurate reading. Common sight words are short, simple words such as ‘the’, ‘is’, ‘and’, ‘in’, and ‘it’.
