Sight Word Stories
Below are some links to various stories containing sight words for each coloured set. You may print the stories and use them when helping your child to learn and remember their sight words. Each story has been created using the specific sight words in each coloured sight word set. The sight words are bold so that they stand out for the student reader. Reading these books means that students are learning to recognise their sight words with the help of a story context. A story context can help them to figure out what the word is, which can be especially helpful when sounding out is not an option. Enjoy!
Violet Story – Let’s Play Ball
Indigo Story – My Birthday Cakes
Pink Story – We love to read and play
Aqua Story – The Camping Trip
