Shape Boxes: Learning to Spell Sight Words
To help students learn sight words, the teacher has them breakdown words into tall and short letters, and count the number of letters in each word. Then, she uses shape boxes to help children visualize the words. She also focuses on a small number of sight words each week and uses them in multiple activities.
