Teaching sight words as wholes


Here is a Twitter exchange between Elizabeth Brown and me on 11.7.2023. This discussion would not have happened if she had read the links in my post here I wrote that post after a Twitter discussion with her, more than a year ago, on a similar matter on 5.3.2022.

I have several posts on my blog on how to teach kids to memorise the Dolch words. Any educators with a little common sense will realise that memorising 220 words that makeup between 50 to 70 percent of all the words in a kid’s book should be encouraged.
