Can you give her the sight words for the next grade level from previous years? That way she is doing advanced work but she is not learning words that when she gets to first grade that she will be bored out of her mind. She will be an advanced reader.

The student can be encouraged to use some of the words in short sentences. I use an interactive notebook where they utilze the sight words in sentences, cut out the pre- made words and stick them in order. Then they will attempt to write out the sentences. The next step would be to draw a picture that is connected to their sentences. If the student has access to an ipad, they can record themselves on the Show Me app, where they can read out the sentence that they structured utilizing the sight word and explain the picture. This is a great motivation for the students as they like to listen and see their recording.

Does she know the sight words in isolation or both in isolation and content? Next, I would have her read the words in content and use them in writing. If she has these two things down. If you have access to a computer or IPad there are many programs the student can use to spell the words. It is important that they know their sight words in reading, but several students have a hard time with spelling.

I would allow her to make a sentence as we are discussing the specific sight words that we are covering. So as I introduce a sight word, I would ask this student to use this word in a sentence aloud as an example for her peers.

Find some activities that can incorporate the same words into her assignments, but in a different context. For example, she may know what the words says, but can she use them? It's a delicate situation as you don't want to keep pushing her ahead, as this same issue will arise next grade level.

This student could be working on practicing their writing skills. Since she is able to recognize so many words, she should try writing her own sentences using these words. Maybe she could also get a first grade level set of words that she can start practicing, using, and identifying.

Having the student work on these sight words in other challenging areas to aid them with using material to strengthening their writing or playing a game to help them identify the words highlighting a text or newspaper to see how often they are used. You could give the student the 1st grade words after trying to use enriching activities with the current words first.

Find a learning strategy that the student enjoys, such as puzzles and find a way to incorporate them into her instruction. She could possibly be a teacher helper and she could help her classmates. (If I learned anything from my own children being in Kindergarten, they enjoy telling others what they know)

I would have the student manipulate the words somehow. Maybe have her add some affixes, create a short story, make compound words?
