Sight Words for the Week

Teachers will assess students’ knowledge of sight words weekly.

Light in a Hole

Ty spots a mole. It is in a hole. It does not like

the light.

Ty will sit right by the hole. Might the mole come

out at night?

Ty will rest. He will lie by the hole and wait for

the mole.

“The mole peered out of its hole!” yells Ty. “It was

such a sight!”

Ty ties a light on a rope. He drops the rope

in the hole.

“I do not spot the mole,” he sighs.

“It may not like my light.”

Activity

Write about why a

mole might not like

light.
