Welcome! It has been awhile since I’ve had time to post (a new baby, you know). 
This year I have been reintroducing myself to teaching reading and language arts. I have taught only math for the last seven years! One of the ways I check student progress is by monitoring their sight word knowledge. I use the Instant Word list from The Reading Teacher’s Book of Lists. The book claims that the first 300 words makes up about 65% of all written material. If you teach RLA and don’t have this book, I would suggest checking it out. I couldn’t live without it. It has list for everything: synonyms, homophones, idioms, etc.While I LOVE this book, I have found sight word testing to be tedious and cumbersome. To help with that, I have created some teacher-friendly forms and flashcards that correspond with all of the first 300 words. My Instant Words eBook is completely FREE (just click on the picture).
As always, I would love to hear what you think. Have a wonderful week, everyone!
