Sight Words

I have a great new idea from a friend on how to teach sight words. Since my first year of teaching, I have used sight word cheers that two teachers in my district had created. These were great but my students this year did not seem to be remembering the words even after practicing everyday. I have started a password my students whisper to me every time they enter the classroom. This is a quick way to check which students are recognizing the words and which ones need a little extra help. The other added benefit is it keeps my students from getting crowded in the cubicle area.
