Spelling
The letters of going
Sight words are the most frequent words in books. Children learn to recognise them at a glance, without sounding out, because some do not follow phonics rules exactly. The word going means "ذاهب" and appears in sentences like: I am going home..
3 ways to make it stick
- Read and point: show the word on a card and read it together 3 times.
- Hunt: look for the word in a storybook and count how often it appears.
- Write: the child writes it in the air, then in sand or on paper.
