This lesson is fundamental as it lays the groundwork for reading proficiency, a crucial skill for young learners' academic success.
Through activities such as "Sight Words: The Worksheet" and "What Do You See? Reading Worksheet," students will be introduced to frequently occurring words in the English language.

Mastering these words helps students read more smoothly and efficiently, boosting their confidence and encouraging a love for reading.
Understanding and correctly spelling common sight words is essential because it significantly impacts reading speed and comprehension. As students become familiar with these words, they can focus more on understanding the text rather than decoding each word, enhancing their overall reading experience.
