Multisensory Sight Words

Sight words are words that students should recognize and read immediately (without having to sound them out...and a lot of sight words are irregular words and cannot be sounded out!) Your student’s fluency, and ultimately, their comprehension depends on automatic sight word reading!

By using WonderGrove’s sight word videos, students: 

✔️ Engage because of emotional attachments to animated characters.

✔️Hear the word individually and in context.

✔️See the word written.

✔️Say the word along with the character.

You can use the 80+ WonderGrove sight word videos by:

  1. Logging in to WonderGrove Learn.

  2. Find the “Dolch Sight Words” playlist.

  3. Watch a word a day!
