100 Write-and-Learn Sight Word Practice Pages: Engaging Reproducible Activity Pages That Help Kids Recognize, Write, and Really LEARN the Top 100 High-Frequency Words That are Key to Reading Success Paperback – February 1, 2002

As a 15+ years of experience teaching K-2 and a mom who homeschooled my youngest, this is an ecellent resource for children learning sight words. I used this book to supplement my now first grader's learning to recognize high frequency words when he was 3 years old. We used it regularly when he was 3 years old. He was an early reader. I used resources such as this one that made learning fun and kinesthetic. Yes, you will have to help your child form and write the sentences. But, heeelllllo! This is for the reviewers who said they did not think the sentences were appropriate: ALL children learning to read and spell high frequency words need lots of support in this area. But you don't withhold teaching your child/student how to write sentences just because they cannot write them on their own yet! And for the MANY reviewers who complained about the fact that they should not have made the pages back to back to where you have to copy each sheet in order for the child to be able to cut the words, uhm please read the description "REPRODUCIBLES". That means that you make a copy. Also, fyi, most of these Scholastic books are marketed or made for classroom teachers so the assumption is that teachers will incorporate them into their lessons for an entire classroom-so, copies are expected. One more thing, if they were not back to back, then this workbook would be TWICE the price. I like that I was able to buy it for under $12. One more thing, a few people stated that it was boring for their students. I agree that some students may get bored. But I found , as a classroom teacher, it was an Excellent homework resource for my first graders. Because it was always the same format, after a month or so, my students were able to do it independently at home with the exception of the sentence which still required some parent support. However, my on grade level and above grade level students were able to write their own sentences independently by about a month or so. One really neat bonus, as a classroom teacher, is that it involved my students' parents in teaching their child how to form sentences, thereby students learned the concept of a sentence, a period and how sentences start with capital letters in conjunction with learning how to spell and write HF words in an accelerated pace. Highly Recommend this resource to supplement your instruction.

A great curriculum for teaching sight words and beginning writing.

My kid's school actually uses worksheets similar to these so I thoughts I would try it for my daughter (rising K) and son (rising 2nd grader) as summer help. My son has a learning disability, but completes the sheets in just a few minutes per page. We is able to read the instructions and come up with sentences on his own. This is the perfect support for him. It allows us to test his ability to come up with sentences on his own, spelling, word recognition and punctuation. I'm not a teacher, but this was a good find! I have decided that since my daughter is still learning to read I will do further reviw of sight words with other tools (to build her confidence) and ease her into this book in 2 weeks.

This book is designed to be photocopied. It is designed for multiple child use. I feel like this book was made for school use but accessible for in home use as well. It's not the only one out there like this but reviews are fair in pointing that out. All that being said it's a really great practice book for sight words. I homeschool and am planning to use it for summer review or potentially for first grade curriculum practice.TIP FOR THE CUT OUT: If you don't want to photo copy print up/write out a list of all the words for them to cut and glue on. Or just have them write in the missing letters instead.TIP FOR THE SENTENCE: You can have them just rewrite the entire sentence above it. The main reason they encourage writing a whole new sentence is to help them understand the word and it's use. In similar workbooks I have my child tell me their sentence then I write it out above the line they are suppose to fill out. Then they can just copy it down themselves.

I like this book as its focus is on writing activities that help students remember and build a sight word lexicon. This book may become boring for young students as the focus is on writing sight words at the word and sentence level. Nonetheless, I still find writing vital in developing literacy skills in beginning readers. To take the edge off of this activities, I use this book in conjunction with 100 Words Kids Need to read by 1st Grade which focuses on fun learning activities that engage students in the learning process. In one lesson, I introduce a word using this text, and in the next lesson, I reinforce the word using a sight word page from 100 Write and Learn Sight Words Practice Pages. I have been using these two texts for a little over a month now and can see a noticeable difference in my students' ability to learn and remember sight words. Both texts have been a confidence builder for this student.

100 Write and earn Site words workbook is the perfect supplement to help build writing skills and even sentence forming, even though it isnt about sentences. We used this as part of our homeschool and it was a perfect addition to Spelling AND Writing class. Each page offers a site word, space to trace and write the word several times, letters to cut out and space to glue them in the correct order, and then lines to write a sentence using the site word.

I was a home school mom last year and I was really scared that my daughter would have a hard time learning to read. I looked over many different books to help her with her sight words, but this was the best one we were able to find. When I got it I was a bit worried because it wasn't very thick, but I was worried for no reason. She loved this book, and it worked really well. She was able to complete the book and retain the words that were taught in the book. This book made something that she was scared of something that she was able to accomplish with ease. I certainly recommend this book to anyone looking to help their little one start reading.
