• Box Set: 10 Books
• Ages: 6 to 7
• Stage 2: Emerging Readers

Sight words are common words that appear again and again in your children’s reading material. Knowing these words ‘by sight’ is essential for reading fluency. This set provides more practice by introducing another set of sight words.

With Sight Words Year 2 (1st Grade) we continue with our easy method for introducing sight words. Consistent short vowels and simple stories mean children sound out (decode) the story, and must memorize only three new sight words per book. With plenty of repetition and context clues, your young reader will quickly master the next set of 30 sight words.

Words and stories in the Sight Words Year 2 (1st Grade) box set are slightly longer and more complex than the Sight Words Year 1 (Kindergarten) box set. Succeeding reading these books builds confidence in the progressing reader.

Inside the box you’ll find:

• 10 easy-to-read, hilarious small books, 12 pages each.
• Slightly longer and more complex stories.
• All stories told in one syllable, three-, four- and five-letter words, plus sight words.
• Consistent short vowels mean easy decoding in the rest of the story.
• Three new sight words introduced in each book.
• 30 two-sided, sight words flash cards.

Sight words introduced:
a, are, ate, before, bring, come, find, good, he, into, like, little, long, make, my, new, now, old, play, pretty, said, she, than, that, too, under, what, will, with, you

ABOUT BOBS BOOKS

Bob Books is America’s no.1, award-winning, learning-to-read series trusted for over 40 years.

Bob Books is a true first reader series, designed to make helping children learn to read simple and straightforward. The clean layout, short words, and simple phonics make learning to read a fun and natural step for a child that knows the alphabet. Companion workbooks extend children’s reading journey by allowing them to practice the skills learned in the books.

Bob Books is designed to give young children the tools to cross from learning letters to reading words. The award-winning beginning reader book sets start slowly and progress from books with three letter words, to books with more than one sentence per page. By meeting children at the right level, parents are often amazed at how quickly their child is able to sound out words when reading their first Bob Book.

Bob Books covers four reading stages…

• Pre-Readings Skills Recognize shapes, patterns, and other pre-reading skills
• Stage 1: Starting to Read From learning the alphabet to sounding out your first words
• Stage 2: Emerging Readers Sentences become longer and sight words are introduced
• Stage 3: Developing Readers Words and sentences become longer, and new rules are introduced
