Sight+Vocabulary

In Learning Center 1, as well as within the General Education classroom, there is the expectation that children will learn sight vocabulary. These words typically appear with high rates of frequency in text, and are also not always decodable, although sometimes they may be. At our school, we use common lists that if mastered (meaning the child quickly and accurately reads these words) contribute to a higher rate of fluency in oral and later, in silent reading for the child.
