Movie Reviews of Meet the Sight Words 1Movie Review: I love it! Summary: 5 Stars
There have already been so many great reviews... I love this set of dvds. I honestly worried at one point that my daughter was color blind, she said the wrong colors to everything. I laugh about it now but I worked with her and it was frustrating. Well it took just one week with the color video and the result was awesome!!!! She knows them all now! I'm excited about the sight words too, they both enjoy the dvds and often request them in the car, so a 15 min trip to school or back they watch it. I just tested my 3 yr old and she already knows half of the words... that is so exciting!!!! Don't knock that she's just memorizing them, because she's also figuring out that M sounds like mmmmmm and it will help her decode new words as we continue reading books together and learning the sounds of the alphabet! I'm excited and just wanted to share. :)
Movie Review: Great Reinforcement Summary: 5 Stars
I'm so happy that I found this DVD. For the majority of my Kindergarten students, this is not a necessary teaching aid. However, I have a few struggling students who need reinforcement with sight words. One had no preschool experience, one has severe emotional problems, one is an ESL student, learning English for the first time and one is very immature.
I am using this DVD in a center where children use wireless headphones. They only listen for one ten minute segment a day. I am hoping (and believing) that by the end of the school year, all of these students will have mastered the words on the video.
I would love for Kathy Oxley to produce a DVD on the color words and I would like the option to purchase all of the characters on card stock to use as display or flash cards.
I am very happy with this product.
Movie Review: My two year old son can name all 23 sight words! Summary: 5 Stars
I never would have thought about introducing sight words to my son at such a young age, but he learned letters, numbers, shapes and colors with such rapid speed (from the other DVDs in the Preschool Prep Series), that I had to give this one a try. It took about 5 viewings before he was pointing at sight words over my shoulder as I was reading magazines and newspapers. I was not surprised. This video uses the same formula that worked magic in the other Preschool Prep Series DVDs. I just purchased a copy for his preschool teacher and she is now showing it to the class for 10 minutes each day. Another great thing about this DVD is that there is a menu selection where a teacher can select a short lesson so that the class can watch the DVD in segments. I can't say enough about these great products!
Movie Review: Seriously AMAZING! Summary: 5 Stars
Seriously, folks, this is AMAZING! My daughter has always loved the alphabet since she was 18 months old and LOVES, loves, loves books. She's crazy about this video, and now (at 3.5 years old) she can read over 10 sight words, and she just finished reading an ENTIRE Meet the Sight Words starter book! The point of the sight words is not for the kids to just 'memorize' the words (as critics say) but to give the child some momentum to keep learning to read a book! When they have to struggle with every single word they get tired/fustrated before 1 sentence. With sight words, they gain tons of confidence when every other (or every third word) they can "read!"
With this video (we also bought #2) - she probably saw it 6 or 7 times and now knows ALL of the words. I'm SO HAPPY I bought this!!
Movie Review: A charming and helpful tool to help little kids get started on the joy of reading Summary: 5 Stars
Meet the Sight Words 1 begins this delightful, educational DVD series for young children. Ideal for little people ages 15 months to 6 years, Meet the Sight Words 1 helps children learn to read basic words such as "of", "play", "it", "he", "you", "in", "I", "to", "have", "and", "a", "said", "is", "the", "for", and "that" through anthropomorphic graphics that bring the letters to life, followed by a transition to printed text. For example, the word "play" is brought to life with a smiling letter p holding the letter "l" as a baseball bat, while the letter "a" is made up as a baseball glove and a happy letter "y" sits like a game spectator. A charming and helpful tool to help little kids get started on the joy of reading, great for preschool DVD libraries as well as for parents' homes. 40 minutes.
