DEVELOPMENTAL READING ACTIVITY
The Dolch List contains words that must be quickly recognized in order to
have reading fluency. If the child is spending too much time
decoding, or figuring out words, then comprehension cannot occur.
The Dolch Words are the most frequently used words in the English
language, making up 50 to 70 percent of any text! Many of the Dolch
words cannot be "sounded out" and must be learned by "sight," or
memorized. Daily practice reading and drills is needed to master it.
Repetition and practice are very important to make these words automatic.
Again, once these basic sight words have been mastered, children will read more
fluently, and this will have a positive impact on comprehension.
