What are Dolch Sight Words?
Dolch Sight Words are a list of 220 non-nouns (pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and verbs) and 95 nouns that make up over 50% of the text your child will read in Kindergarten through third grade. Most Sight Words cannot be easily sounded out (phonetically decoded) therefore being able to recognize these words is essential for your child’s literacy.
This game is great for teaching your child sight words. As your child searches for sight words hidden in a word search, your child learns to recognize Sight Words!
They can play in two modes:
Practice Mode - This mode is great for a child just beginning to learn Sight Words. They can select which list they want to study. (Pre-Primer, Primer, First Grade, Second Grade, Third Grade, Nouns A-G, Nouns H-Z) They can hit the hint button to see the word they are looking.
Play Mode - This mode challenges your child by earning points for each correct answer. They only have 30 seconds to find the word. If they run out of time they have to start the level over. Finish all seven levels to win!
