Writing and Spelling
Students in kindergarten and first grade have to learn how to read and spell many words!
Some of those words are known by different names:
Word Wall Words, Sight Words, Lightning Words, etc.
These are words that students should learn to recognize by sight very quickly- some follow spelling patterns, some have tricky parts that have to be learned by heart.
