Review of Sightwords.com

This is an awesome website! All students would benefit from this, but especially the special needs children that struggle with putting sounds together and making words. I have been using this with my own special needs son lately and LOVE it!!! Why?

They have put together words for Pre-k through 3rd grade. There is a page with all the words so you have a list of them and then they have made it where you can print them out in a flash card and laminate them so they won’t wear out. You can also customize your words. Don’t know how to teach them to your child? No problem they have a whole section on how to teach them in different ways.

Another awesome thing that they do on their site is to have all sorts of games to play with your child to help them learn the words. Games like Bingo, Snakes and Ladders, Fly Swat, Fishing, Go Fish, Memory, Bean Bag Toss, Parking Lot, Pathways, Old Maid, Book Land, Dominoes and Christmas Activities.

My son loves playing these games and even though he is still struggling it makes it a lot more fun for him and we know that he will eventually be able to read because of this program. Check it out for yourself! It is FREE and I think you will agree. Go to http://www.sightwords.com to see it for yourself.

I'm the wife of my best friend that God gave to me over 20+ years ago. We have been blessed with 3 children, James (by adoption); Abigail & Milton (special needs child) and our service dog, Suzy. I have been blessed to be able to homeschool since 1997 and be the co-director with my husband, Michael, of the state wide Christian homeschool organization, MATCH since 1999. God has blessed us abundantly.
