Many of the words in the book are basic sight words. Sight words are a subset of high-frequency words that do not sound the way they are spelled and are therefore not easily learned. Identifying these words and then finding them in the story will build literacy. Using words that students are familiar with helps them build fluency and flow as they read. Teaching students to memorize these words, by sight, helps them read faster with confidence. As you read through this series the young reader can develop mastery of all the sight words. Each story also contains a feeling word to build emotional literacy.
