Sight Words Flash Cards
Flash cards can help a child develop a sight word vocabulary. In addition, they are affordable and extremely easy to make. The only requirements are a writing instrument, e.g. pen, marker or pencil, and paper or index cards. We created three types of flash cards:
- Using regular font,
- Using dotted lines, and
- Using a bubble font.
Using the flash cards with the dotted line font, let your child trace the letters for each sight word. The bubble font flash cards are a perfect activity to let your child’s artistic talents shine. Decorate each flash card – color in each sight word and when applicable add a drawing or image to represent the word (some words will be more difficult than others to illustrate, e.g., or, its). For a more traditional look, use the regular font sight word flash cards. You will most likely use these cards many times, so please consider laminating each flash card or printing on card stock paper.
The PDf files below contain 8 words or 1 page per file. Every child progresses differently; slowly introduce new words and always remember to review previously taught words.
