FLASHCARD · SIGHT WORDS · AGES 4–5 YEARS
A Flashcard for Preschoolers
The shortest word in the set is also one of the busiest, and it is the first card in the pile.
How the card helps
One raised finger links the word to the idea of one, so a child has a picture to hang it on.
A quick game
Spread five cards face up and ask your child to hand you the one that says a. Swap roles.
What it teaches
Your child learns to spot the shortest word on the page and the thing-words it keeps company with.
Print it like this
Print it and put it at the front of the shelf where the early readers live.
One more idea
Use the soft uh sound when reading a sentence, and the letter name only when singing the alphabet.
