                                                                                                                            Once children know this, it becomes easy for them to read words by themselves.
                                                                                                                            The child captured is reading and spelling words with ‘sh’, which makes the sound /sh/.

                                                                                                                            Sight words sorted by phonics skills make learning words more logical and less memorizing. At
