Craft Right Brain 220 DOLCH Sight Words
Do you have students who are struggling to memorize their 220 Dolch sight words?
Stop the Struggle!
Learn Sight Words easily with the “instant success” Craft Right Brain Dolch 220 Sight Word Cards.
Students effortlessly learn to READ and SPELL these sight words because the imagery on the words causes it to stick in their long term memory.
Use a whole new method of memorization. Employ their strong visual memory to learn words.
This unique learning technique shows the students how to use their internal “camera” to take a picture of the word. This enables them not only to remember the name of the word, but also to SPELL the word from memory. Many of your students will easily spell the word forwards and backwards, although this isn’t necessary.
This has often been called the “Universal Learning Method” because it is so easy to use for even the most struggling learner. It helps students tap into their natural photographic memory.
As one first grader said to her mother, “I don’t hate school anymore. It’s not so hard.”
“Visual Memory is far superior to Auditory Memory. It is practically perfect”, Peter Russell, author of The Brain Book.
We have made these 220 sight word cards with the unique “imbedding” technique that make them so easy to remember for our population. These colorful cards are created in sets by the DOLCH grade level: Pre-Primer (40 cards), Primer (52 cards), First Grade (41 cards), Second Grade (46 cards), and Third Grade (41 cards).
This is a unique method of teaching sight words. The left brain hemisphere stores the name of the word, while the right brain hemisphere stores the “picture” of the word. To help the student store the name and picture in one unit, we use the unique, powerful method of Imbedding.
This method of learning works wonderfully with students of all ages and abilities:
- Kindergarten teachers can give their students a real “leg up” in learning the early sight words.
- First grade teachers use this method to ensure that all their students learn the basic sight words by the end of the year.
- Second and third grade teachers use it for those students who are reading below grade level.
- ESL teachers find them very effective for their population.
- Struggling readers, students on an IEP, and students with an auditory processing glitch find these cards invaluable for making a “leap” in learning.
The beauty of this method is that by using the child’s “camera” to learn the words, the child not only learns to read the words easily, but also spell them using his new-found “photographic memory.”

Not only is my student remembering the sight words, but he is also able to write them from memory – without looking at the card! Truly amazing what a right-brained child can do when he is taught using right-brained learning techniques! What we could not do the entire school year using traditional left-brained techniques, he has learned at least forty words in only a few months using the way of learning in which his brain was designed to learn
