These reading printables should help your child to learn the high frequency words (also called sight words or key words). However, memorising a string of, lets face it, pretty meaningless words, is not an easy thing to do. So, as well as pointing out the words in books, newspapers and on posters, you can help your child to learn the words using a game (or better still, lots of different games). This way, your child will be able to learn the words almost effortlessly.
Although the English language contains many thousands of words, research by Solity 2005 has shown that just 16 words (a, and, he, I, in, is, it, my, of, that, the, then, to, was, went, with) make up a quarter of all the words in a typical text, whether aimed at adults or children, and that a total of 100 words (including the 16 most common) represent half the words in a text. Learning these "high frequency words" can give your child a head start in learning to read.

'Only 100 words' needed to read
England's strategy for teaching children to read could be overloading them with superfluous words, researchers have suggested.
The strategy recommends teaching them to recognise 150 words initially.

在學習英文的自然發音的同時，也要學習其常見用字，有些並非是照發音規則的拼法，所以必需把這一部分的字另外再拿出來做不同的練習，這樣就能更加快閱讀書本的速度唷!
Follow the links below to the free online sight word games. Your child will have lots of fun while developing their sight word recognition and spelling skills. These games will help children to learn to recognise the most common reading words on sight.
