How I teach sight words #shorts

If you're confused on how to teach sight words without simple memorization, I've got you. Here's how I teach sight words by pointing out the tricky part of the word (that'll make your little one a stronger reader in the long run.)

Where do you suggest a parent start when teaching their kid to read? I have a 3 year old and I don’t know where to start

[hehtbbsisuecejsisyevrhsjbe]

English is such a fun language

[mahneetaa]

He is such a good father and a teacher.May God bless him 🙏🥰

[Minecraftmom]

This is so great! Good job, Little One and great job, Papa!🎉

[rooty]

This is just how all kids are taught to read. I've never heard of anyone just being taught sight words.

[TruestLovely]

This is how teachers taught in the 80's, no child left behind changed a lot of things and actually left a lot of children behind.

I love this dad. I wish all kids had a father like him ❤

[EKGirl]

This is how I teach my students! They're a bit older so they're learning spelling rules like CVC patterns and long vs short vowel sounds. It helps them so much and takes a lot of pressure off of spelling tests since they aren't memorizing every word, they're just remembering the rule

This is how my mom taught me as a little kid way back in the dinosaur era - the 1960s.I had forgotten all about it! Thank you.

The Dad is so nice and patient with his son

[seraphim]

Bro your kid’s gonna have an aneurysm the day she reads “Tough”, “Through”, “Thorough”, and “Throughout” and they all sound completely different

[jasonclegg]

They do this in UK schools. I just assumed that would be standard practice.

[riverlemay]

[iamaayushv_rblx]

"but I'm 20 years old dad"
Dad:nobody's gonna know

[therandomguy_]

I like how he is showing this in a more physical way easier to understand

[kazuhadavinci]

Exam be like:
Q1a)Read the word “tough”
Q1b)Hence, read though, thorough, cough, through

[LadySsS]

Phonics is an amazing skill that is always useful for the rest of your life. God job Dad

[rinnylee]

Thank you! Unfortunately so many schools are using reading curricula that rely heavily on memorizing and guessing based on context/pictures rather than sounding out words.

[anjieizaguirre]

You can't always just sound out words. The English language is one of the hardest to languages to learn how to read.

[Raptorsified]

Yes! This is how I've always learned different languages. It's all pattern recognition. Play it like a puzzle game and it's fun.
