What is a Sight Word?

Sight words are words that we teach beginner readers to know by heart. This is so that when they see it they know it. It can help speed reading along.

Simply put, these are words that are commonly found in reading. Some examples are: like, and, can, go here, and come. They might not be easy to decode or don’t follow a simple sounding pattern.

How to Use the Sight Word Tracing Card Printables

You are going to see a few ways that I prepare and use the tracing sight word cards.

Preparing the Sight Word Cards

I love that these cards are reusable. You can print them on white cardstock and laminate them. This allows you to use them over and over. I always pick out their favorite color the dry erase markers to use with them.

Keep the Sight Word Tracing Cards on a Ring

An easy way to store the cards is to put them on a ring. You can use the ring size you need for the cards you are using. You could put all the words that start with one letter on a ring to practice the words. I use a small 1 inch ring for a few cards and a 2 inch ring for all the cards from a list.

Match the Sight Word Tracing Cards with the Sight Word Flashcards

You can match the trace cards with a plain sight word card. You can make a game of it. You can line up the cards with words up or words down for whichever works best for your kids. Match cards from both sides and have fun. You could do this with the guideline cards as well.

After they match the cards, have them trace the tracing card. You could do this with their finger or a dry erase markers on the laminated cards. They are very flexible in how you want to use them. I always keep dry erase markers around.

Print the Tracing Sight Word Cards on Colored Cardstock

One fun part about having these be black and white is that you can print them on any color cardstock you want! So kids can have different colors all year long. It is a fun seasonal change that you can do.
