What are Dolch words?
Dolch words are a set of sight words first developed by Edward William Dolch in 1936.
Dolch created the list by scanning books for children and finding the most common words.
You will see the age of this list specifically in the list of nouns where words such as kitty and Santa Claus are found.
Even though the list is older, we know many classrooms still rely on the Dolch nouns for sight words.
We like the list of Dolch nouns simply because it gives you a set of words that students can match with pictures.
Dolch Noun Puzzles
These puzzles can be used to create a meaningful center for your students learning to read. They will allow students to match words with meaning. This can be especially helpful for your students learning English.
To prepare your puzzles, we suggest printing on heavy white card stock. Follow up with laminating and cutting apart your puzzles.
If you feel like your students need this center to be self checking, you can place letters or numbers on the back of the puzzle pieces.
