HMH Into Reading Kindergarten – Sight Word List

Recognize assigned kindergarten high-frequency words automatically

Review previously introduced words while adding each new period's set

Use displayed word cards to locate common words during reading and writing

Introduce only the cards assigned to the current period, then leave earlier cards available for cumulative review.

Sort the auxiliary cards into colors, days, and number words before mixing them into broader sight-word practice.

Use the overview to coordinate letter-sound review with the word list rather than treating the two sequences as unrelated.

High-frequency word recognition — repeated lists support increasingly automatic reading of common words.

Cumulative review — each learning period combines established words with newly introduced items.

Environmental print use — wall cards provide stable word models during independent work.
