Word Practice
Word Practice is where your child will practice their high frequency words. These are the words most commonly seen when reading any passage. Mastery of sight words is essential for reading fluency and rapid reading growth.
Word Practice is divided into two sections. Your child will begin practice with the Sight Word Sets. These are single words posted in a flashcard format. Sight Word practice is self-paced.
After Sight Word Sets are mastered, your child will progress to the Look & Say Sets. These are short phrases composed of high frequency words. Encourage your child to independently practice using the self-checking audio files on the Voweletics website.
