 Welcome to
100 Sight Word Mini-Books!

A
n experience I had teaching led me to realize the need for a resource that
teaches high-frequency words in a visual manner. It happened like this: One
day, a first grader asked me to print the word rain in his personal dictionary.
Just as I was about to write it in, there it was, on the page already! If there had
been a picture beside the word, I thought, he would not have asked how to spell
rain a second time. It made me wonder why children didn’t use picture dictionaries
more often.

I began studying picture dictionaries, old and new. Most of them were collections of
concrete nouns. Some contained a few verbs and adjectives. But rarely did they
illustrate challenging words such as of, too, why, was, or who. Before word walls
started to appear, it was a common practice, in classrooms that I visited, for
teachers to post lists of words like these.

My research led me to the Dolch list of sight words and several subsequent
variations. (There seemed to be more agreement on which words to include
on a list than on what to call them: sight words, high-frequency words, primer
words, instant words, core words, tricky words, puzzle words.) According to many
reading experts, one hundred of these words constitute 50 percent of what
children read and write in the early years. Experts also recommend that these
abstract words be taught in context. Many have irregular spelling and multiple uses,
which make them difficult to learn. They are generally considered “unpicturable.”
That’s why they weren’t in the picture dictionaries!

At this point, I enlisted my husband, an illustrator, to help me design a series of

worksheets. We started by portraying sight words alphabetically in brief, common
phrases and sentences. Then, I thought about composing four-line verses so that
children could recite the sight words in a chant, for example, “See that hamster?
See that dog? See that fish? See that frog?” The repetition, rhythm and rhyme,
together with the pictures, would make the lessons fun and more memorable.

In 1998, I noticed teachers adding word walls to their classrooms. Word walls are
valuable tools because they give children exposure to sight words. But some
children require more support than letters alone can provide. Like training wheels

on a bike or water wings in a pool, picture cues can help children until they are
ready to ride off to, or dive into, literacy. We decided to format the illustrated verses
as reproducible booklets. Our goal was to produce a series of one hundred lessons.
I took these mini-books into several primary classrooms and got an enthusiastic
response. Even children with reading difficulties felt successful because the booklets
were only four lines long, highly repetitive, and had close picture-text match.

So, here are our 100 mini-books! You will find instructions for assembling the
books below, and on pages 6–11, teaching tips for introducing them to children, as
well as activities and ideas to extend learning. May these lessons be the keys your
children use to unlock the English language and a lifetime of learning!

 Introducing the Mini-Books:

1. Display the cover of the enlarged book (see Making the Mini-Books
page 5), for example, the “are” book on page 38. Say, Today we are
going to talk about the word “are.” What letters are in this word?
Let’s think of some ways we can use this word. How might you use
it in a sentence?

2. Look at and discuss the pictures. Point out how one letter is printed
on each dash (a r e). Talk about the directionality of the text (left
side, top to bottom, right side, top to bottom). Read the phrases or
sentences aloud as children follow along. Then invite a pair of
children to read the four lines of the verse aloud.

3. Lead the class in a chant:

Read the word.

(are)

Spell the word.

(a-r-e)

Point to and read the

word in each line.
(are . . . are . . . are . . . are)

Read the verse.

(They are worms. They are bugs.
They are butterflies. They are slugs.)

Read the word again.

(ARE!)

4. Invite children to use their finger to “write” the sight word in the air.

5. Tell children to write their name on the cover of their book.

6. Ask them to read aloud with you the large sight word on the cover.
Then invite children to color the word creatively or according to a
pattern. For example, they might color vowels red and consonants
blue, or long vowels red and short vowels yellow. Silent letters might
remain uncolored.

7. Direct children to use a pencil to trace the

them print the letters of the
sight word on each of the
dashed lines in the third and
fourth lines of the verse.

9. Read aloud the verse, then invite children to join in as

you read it again. Encourage children to use the pictures to
help them read the words.

10. Have children turn to the word search on the back cover. About the Word Searches
Ask them to study the letters carefully. Then say, How many In each Level One word search,
times can you find the sight word the sight word is hidden four

that they should circle the word Four books.
only if it is printed left to right and
top to bottom. This reinforces
directionality of text. Levels Three
and Four include words printed on
the diagonal, beginning with the word search for “found”
on page 67, to give students who are ready an extra challenge.

11. Invite children to use colored pencils or thin markers to color

the pictures in their mini-book, if they like. Encourage them to
reread their mini-books often, at school and at home, to family
members and friends.

 The Sight Words

W
e compared several lists of high-frequency and sight words (Dolch; Edward
Fry; Otto & Stallard; Ves Thomas; Clay & Watson; Bodrova, Leong &
Semenov; and others). Some of these lists are based on general usage.
Some focus on usage by children or by authors of children’s reading material. Others
are organized for instruction according to reading ability.
The most important words appear prominently on all lists, though the ranking
varies. We selected and sorted one hundred of these words into four levels
depending upon difficulty of spelling or usage. Except for one and two, we did not
choose nouns, colors, or numbers for our list. Most of those words are easy to
represent. Many appear in our verses as content words. To compose verses, we
matched the sight words with common word families that were ranked according
to complexity (short vowels, long vowels, blends, irregulars).
The first level, for early emergent readers, features lessons in a specific order
for 25 of the most useful high-frequency words. Most of these are used in phrases
or sentences of just two or three words. The remaining 75 mini-books are
divided into three progressive sections. The books in these three levels are
organized alphabetically.
Lessons are intended to be taught one level at a time because they incorporate
vocabulary and word families previously learned. Nonetheless, you can introduce
words in an order that supplements your reading program.

 Activities & Extensions
Alphabet Sort
Have children select four or more mini-books randomly and sort the sight words
into alphabetical order. This promotes skills for early dictionary use. Children can
also take words from a single verse and sort them alphabetically on paper.

Show Me the Vowels

Print a sight word verse on the blackboard or chart paper with all the vowels
missing. Invite children to print one or more vowels until the phrases or sentences
are completed.

Sight Word Rhyming Time

Make a list of words that rhyme with the sight word and are spelled in a similar
manner. (For instance, get rhymes with pet, vet, wet, net, set, let, met.) Point out
rhyming words that are spelled differently than the sight word (for instance, of
rhymes with love, glove, above, shove; said rhymes with bed, red, fed, bread,
head ). Use the rhyming words in the verse to start a list of simple sentences
(for instance, Dad is not mad. Dad is glad ).

Flashcard Mini-Books
The sight word mini-books can be helpful as assessment tools. Use the covers as
flashcards. If a child cannot read the large sight word, open the mini-book to
provide a picture clue.

Pattern Writing
Unfold a mini-book and turn to the blank side. Use the sight word and the pattern
of the verse to create new phrases and sentences. For instance, make: He can
make a mask. She can make a sandwich. He can make a snowman. She can
make a speech. He can make a nest. She can make a vest. This is an excellent
way to reinforce a sight word and give strong writing support. It also helps children
to reread what they have written. In addition, pattern writing may provide
opportunities to discuss colloquial phrases that use the sight words.

10
100 Sight Word Mini-Books © Cestnick & Cestnick, Scholastic Teaching Resources
Sight Word Shapes
This art activity helps a child recognize and recall the shape and features of a word.
Enlarge and photocopy the large sight word on the cover. Cut it out and glue it in the
middle of a horizontal sheet of paper. Make a copy for each child. Then invite children
to use different colors of crayon, colored pencil, or marker to trace around the outline of
the sight word again and again until they reach the edge of the paper. They can also
make patterns in the space between the lines.

Visual Literacy
Teach both sides of the brain! Discussing the illustrations can be a part of any
lesson. Ask questions like these:
● How are the four pictures in the verse similar to another? How are
they different?
● Are some things in the drawings farther away than others?
● What shapes do you see in the pictures?

Connect the Sight Words

After covering most of the lessons, use the mini-books to make pocket chart
sentences composed of as many sight words as possible. On index cards, print
any extra words that children request. Score each sentence by giving a point for
each different sight word used. Do examples as a class, then divide into teams.
Determine a time limit for teams to compose their entries.
Scoring examples:
She can do it. (4 points)
Look at that dog in the window. (5 points)
What do they do with all the bottles? (6 points)
My two friends are going to the zoo and I want to go too. (11 points)
