68 Dolch primer sight words and some from the Fry list. Reviews Volume 1 words.
Publisher's Description of Sight Words Volume 2 DVD
Help your child become a better reader! Kids read or sing along with engaging characters to learn sight words quickly and automatically. Sight words are the most common words in children's literature, and Level 2 covers all of the primer Dolch words and many words from Fry's list. Although this video picks up where Level 1 leaves off, you don't have to begin with Level 1 if your child is starting to read at an approximate kindergarten to first grade level. In fact, this program reviews many of the words found on Level 1, along with 68 new words.
If well-done animated graphics and music help your child learn, then you're both in for a treat with these DVDs. Letter and word presentations are straight forward and clear. The music is catchy and entertaining. The engaging collection of characters includes a spaceman in a flying saucer. Delayed answers allow for interaction with the on-screen learning process. Practicing sounds and words is encouraged. And, just for good measure, they're correlated to the Common Core standards. DVDs run for 50 minutes (widescreen). ~ Janice
