Dolch 2nd Grade Sight Words

Dolch Sight Words Activities, Flash Cards, Worksheets

Despite its many shortcomings, using sight words is still a common and popular way to teach children to read, and the list of 220 sight words compiled by Edward W. Dolch is probably the most widely used. This page you see includes free flash cards and worksheet activities for teaching grade 2 level sight words.

These are provided for personal use only, and in our opinion, all parents and educators should focus more on the teaching of phonics and phonemic awareness and limiting the amount of "sight words" used in their teachings.

Below is a video showing a young 3 year old child reading through the list of second grade sight words.
