The following words are sight words.   These are words that your child will be learning through our Fundations phonics program during the course of their kindergarten year.  Sight words are words that should eventually be recognized and read without any decoding effort. Recognizing sight words will help your child immensely as they are learning to read.  The hope is that BY THE END OF THE YEAR they will recognize them automatically.
