How to Teach Sight Words (High-Frequency Words) That Stick | Effective At-Home Method

Foundations of Learning by Shali Flint

Episode notes

Tired of flashcards that don’t work?

In this video, I’ll show you how to really teach sight words (also called high-frequency words) in a way that sticks—using a method backed by the Science of Reading.

Instead of guessing or memorizing, your child will learn how to break down each word by its sounds, understand why it’s spelled the way it is, and actually remember it long-term.

This approach is simple, fun, and proven to work—even if you're not a teacher!

💡 I’ll walk you through how to use my High-Frequency Word Packet to:

Map each word using sounds and letters

Build fluency through short, daily practice

Reinforce learning with silly sentences and hands-on activities

Teach the 107 most important words your child will see in early reading
