Case: Sight Words
I teach kindergarten and sight words are an important part of our instruction. We must have the support of our parents to keep this going. We try to help each child reach the 100 sight word club but many students do not have the help at home they need. It is a difficult problem. It is not fair to the students when it is their parents that are not helping them. How can we motivate our parents to study nightly?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have experienced the same problem with students not learning sight words. I have had to seek out older siblings and beg them to help students with their sight words at home. The best solution I have found thus far is to incorporate sight words into classroom practices everyday. I have cut outs of hands at each door with a sight word written on the door. Students "high five" the sight word and say the word when the enter and exit the classroom. I also teach phonics in small groups and incorporate 5 sight words per week in these groups. I have just had to look at the problem with sight words as one that has to be addressed within the school building, parents are not technically responsible for helping students meet sight word standards, although help at home is ideal. Best of luck! |

Comments: this is a great strategy. Incorporating the words into the lesson or using down time to give the students the opportunity to practice is so important. It might also be helpful to pair them up with a buddy who already knows the words so they can help them practice. |

Comments: As a teacher, you don't have much control on what the parents do to help their child with school. We know this day and age most parents aren't home when a child comes home. I love the idea of posting the sight words on the door and allowing the students to "high five" the sight word and saying the word while they come and go. I believe by being able to physically see the word and physically saying the word can help the student remember the words. |
