Sometimes technology, specifically WiFi, is not available to us. Many of the resources I have offered to parents and students to help with sight word acquisition are Internet based. The below website offers free printables to help with teaching sight words. Many students respond well to "old-fashioned" flashcards for practice. Flashcards also provide children with the opportunity to use the words in different ways, such as putting words in alphabetical order, creating sentences, and playing memory games.

In addition to sight word flashcards, this website also includes other resources for parents to use in teaching sight words. There are workbooks available to purchase, sight word puzzles, and lists of words. Of course, as mentioned in other posts, sight word recall and knowledge is only one component of fluent reading. However, my experience has been that a solid foundation of sight word knowledge usually corresponds to a good reader.
