| PC-1000 | Sight Words 1 offers teachers an innovative way to reach 
			beginning readers of all ages. This reproducible program, by 
			Janie Haugen-McLane, Jill Haney, and Cynthia Hernandez, teach 
			commonly used words using high-interest, rhyming poems about 
			"real-life" topics. Sight Words 1 teaches 144 words in 36 lessons. 
 Program overview:
 The program features a 12-step routine that guides  
			teachers in using the 4 major multisensory learning modalities (visual, 
			auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic) to teach each lesson's words. 
			Each week, the teacher presents 4 new sight words, first through 
			the context of a poem and then in isolation. Illustrated scenes on 
			each poem poster help students with limited or no reading skills 
			comprehend the poem's meaning. The poem's 4 underlined sight 
			words have corresponding, illustrated flash cards that use the 
			context of the poem to give each word meaning.
 
 For teachers who already have Sight Words 2, Sight Words 1 uses the 
			same proven methods to introduce students to 144 new sight words.
