Sight word lists are all the same and in the same order. Words are on the list according to how often a child will see the word while reading. Teaching through sentences and stories is the most efficient way to anchor so many words in your child's mind. Here are the 1st ten:
the, of, and, a, to, in, is, you, that, it
Use the picture of the kittens as you teach the story below. Start with sentence number one: target word, the. You read, asking your child to point to each word in the sentence as you read it. After reading the sentence several times, ask if your child can point to the target word, the, in sentence number one. Let your child read the target word, the, in the 1st sentence as you read all the other words in the sentence. Instruct the 2nd target word of with the same steps.
1. I see the kitties. The kitties are pretty.
2. The air is full of snow.
3. The white kitty and the black kitty are looking at the snow.
4. The brown kitty has a leaf.
5. The brown kitty wants to play with the leaf.
6. Is it cold in the snow?
7. It is cold in the snow.
8. Do you like to play in the snow?
9. That brown kitty likes to play in the snow.
10. It is fun to look at the kitties.
