Kindergarten Success with Sight Words Workbook

I bought this workbook for my granddaughter because I have had positive experiences with the Sylvan reading program in the past. I chose the 'Sight Words' workbook to supplement what she is learning in kindergarten. New sight words are presented through various activities. There is ample reinforcement via various activities such as mazes and coloring tasks. My granddaughter loves the activities and is proud of herself for learning to read so many new words. I heartily recommend this approach to promoting reading skills. My Granddaughter says that it is lots of fun.

As a teacher, I knew exactly what I was looking for to teach my PRE-K kids how to read and this book delivered! We loved the book! The kids always wanted to keep working on it and they continued to be engaged in their English/Language Arts home school class with this workbook. I would highly recommend it to anyone with children between the ages of 5-7 or with struggling readers! This book makes it fun.

We have this to replace another popular brand sight word workbook that I felt lacked the reinforcement, so I'm very pleased with how this book presents exercises following the introduction of words that are fun and in a number that allows us to do them over several days.

This workbook introduces 5-6 sight words at a time, devoting 6 single sided pages to the group. Some of the words aren’t sight words at all, just word groups like; car, bus, boat, truck, train, plane and feet, leg, eyes, hand, head. The book itself is good quality, with colorful pages and interesting activities. I like the idea of introducing the sight words individually first. I will come back to this book later and use it as a review.

So I'm that parent, making my kids do homework even when their teachers do not assign it, over breaks, and especially during summer. We've gone through a lot of workbooks, this is one of the best. I like to challenge them and also I've found with many books that they're really... well... remedial. You buy a K book for your K child and its all stuff he or she already knows. Sylvan here is a little bit better in this regard. I think this would have been good for my son when he started K. My daughter is the one using it right now, and she is still in Pre-K, she is very advanced though, started preschool when she was still 2. Anyways I like to keep my kids working on the grade above for homework. My son did 1st grade books all through K, so in that respect this is good. Sometimes I question the educational value of some of the tasks in some book, the ones in this book all seem good, many are similar to work the kids do in school, and my daughter has really progressed with this specific book. I just wish it was longer, she is going to finish it. I'm on amazon today looking for a replacement. Not saying this is short, its above average in length for a workbook, I just want one just as good covering the same words for her to go through again, not sure I want to start 1st grade sight words when she is still in prek.

My son, a kindergarten student, usually doesn't like to do workbook and studying-related book. When I introduced this book to him he showed his interests and started to see the book. Now, he sits on the desk by himself to read and workout with this book. This book is well organized and systematized to study step by step with various approaches to stimulate children's senses.

Really good book. This one has puzzles and games and some learning activities. It’s a great balance. My kindergartener loves it

This book, along with a sight word sentences book really helped me to get my granddaughter up to grade level this year. She was really struggling with reading skills and in danger of being held back. We have been working these books about 30 minutes a day 5-6 days a week along with morning reviews while waiting for the bus. I had tears in my eyes today when I looked at her progress report and saw she had gotten an 85% up from 64%! Yay! Her teacher said to continue what we are doing because it is working! I like the way the activities vary the way the words are presented to reinforce the lessons. I also got some cool colored markers that smell like candy to only be used for her "activities." The more ways you can make it fun and relaxing the better your outcome will be.
