Article: sight words

This article requires some improvement to be made in regards to general tone and overall language of the article.

The article seemed very biased and one sided and did not portray a neutral point of view of the method.

The article ends with a definition that would better serve in the article's introduction of topic. This definition should also be reworded to avoid confusion between sight words and sight vocabulary.

The article would also benefit from adding one or two more example of possible sight words and why learning this words would help an emergent reader. ~

Article: sight words

The term sight words is often confused with sight vocabulary, which is defined as each person's own vocabulary that the person recognizes from memory without the need to decode for understanding.

Sight words, often also called high frequency sight words, are commonly used words that young children are encouraged to memorize as a whole by sight, so that they can automatically recognize these words in print within three seconds without having to use any strategies to decode.

Sight words don’t follow the standards rules of spelling or the six syllable types.

Another example, is the word “said”,it breaks the phonetic rule of ai normally makes the long a sound, ay. In this word it makes the short e sound of eh. The word "said" is pronounced as /s/ /e/ /d/. The word “has” also breaks the phonetic rule of s normally making the sss sound, in this word the s makes the z sound, /z/." The word is then pronounced /h/ /a/ /z/.
