If you have not already begun to work on the Dolch Words with your child, please get started now! (Smiles!) These high-frequency words are useful because:
*As readers learn more, having many words that are quickly recognized helps to move the reading along so that problem solving is not necessary on each word; fluency is supported by a large number of easily recognized words.
*Being able to write a small group of high-frequency words quickly without conscious attention helps young writers produce longer and more meaningful messages; they keep the momentum going because they do not have to slow down to puzzle out every word.
Here's a link to the 220 Dolch Words (arranged according to frequency): http://www.mrsperkins.com/dolch-words-all-freq-printable.pdf
