  • Kindergarten sight words: at

    “at” is a common sight word that children often learn early in their reading education. It is a preposition used to indicate a point in time or space. For example:

    – She arrived at 3 PM.
    – The cat sat at the door.

    Sight words like “at” are typically memorized by sight rather than sounded out, which helps children read more fluently.
