Teaching Sight Words the Montessori Way

Why Use the Montessori Method to Teach Sight Words?

The Montessori method is a hands-on, child-centered approach to learning. The Montessori technique, rather than lecturing or drilling children on high frequency words, enables youngsters to explore and discover new material at their own pace. Independent exploration has been shown to be more successful than typical teaching approaches.

High frequency words are the foundation for teaching young children to read. However, teaching sight words can be challenging and time intensive. As a result, many parents and teachers prefer Montessori methods for teaching sight words.

The Montessori method is based on the premise that a child should be able to learn from his or her surroundings. This includes using tangible things to represent words, such as cards and objects. Montessori methods also place a strong emphasis on repetition and practice.
