Vomvokids’ Sight Words

We learn two new sight words every week in Kindergarten.  We practice reading, spelling, and writing these words every day.  Here are the sight words we have learned in class so far this year:

I	big	can
in	it	like
up	a	find
see	two	we
go	not	to
red	have	name

 

Please practice these words with your child at home until he or she can read them fluently.  This can count toward your nightly reading time!  When your child is able to read all of these words to me, he or she will get a prize from the prize box!  I will update the list every month.  Thank you for your support!
