DVD Reviews of Meet the Sight Words 1
DVD Review: A great movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for my friends son (2.5) and after two weeks he knew all the sight words! He watched the video & they made some flash cards and now he can point out all the words. Its amazing. Preschool prep knows how to do it right!!! Would definitely recommend this video & other videos by preschool prep!!! DVD Review: Awesome teaching DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I already own all of the preschool prep DVDs: meet the shapes,colors,letters and numbers. I believe I purchased these when my son was not quite three. He had all of them mastered after watching each one for a couple of days several times in a row (at his request). I thought at almost 3 1/2 years old he may be ready for meet the sight words. After watching it a couple of times he had already put a couple of the words to memory. We've owned the video since 5/6/09 and he knows all 15 sight words! I can write them down on paper and he has no trouble figuring out what they are. These DVDs keep my son better entertained than most of the garbage on TV and he is learning at the same time. I am very pleased with these videos! There is a lot of repetition in this video and the others in the series, but it works. The sight words included in this DVD are:
play,to,of,in,is,it,that,have,he,and,for,you,the,said,a,I
DVD Review: Surprised that it worked
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time my mom and I watched this video with my 5 year old, I was very skeptical. It didn't make any sense how the words associated with the animations and graphics. For example "the" is displayed on a helicopter. However, I had been teaching my daughter a few sight words for about 3 months and she was struggling. She only watched the video twice and the next time I was reading a book to her she was pointing out "play", "said" "for" "it" "he" and "the" - words that I had not even taught her yet. In addition, we had been working on the word "and" but she always stumbled and paused for a long time when she saw "and" while reading it. However, after watching the video twice, she hasn't struggled with it again.
The only thing I didn't like was that they don't teach "See", "like" "my" and "here" which are some of the first words that the Houghton Mifflen program teaches. I guess I have to buy Sight Words 2.
The words on this video are:
of, play, it, he, you, in, I, to, have, and, a, said, is, the, for & that.
DVD Review: OK, but the original was better
Summary: 3 Stars
A friend loaned us the original Meet the Sight Words and my daughter broke the dvd. So I ordered this to replace it, but they cut out a lot of the words! Instead of 23 words, this version only has 15 and you have to buy Meet the Sight Words 2 to get the rest! This is very annoying, to say the least!DVD Review: Not worth the money or the time! BIG disappointment!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this DVD for my 3 and 4 year old sons, thinking it would give them a jump start on learning sight words. It is really boring! A little while into it, they both walked away from the TV. My boys LOVE educational-type DVDs, but this one really didn't measure up. The characters are cute, but this will confuse kids because there is no connection between how the characters look and the action they are engaged in. The voice on the DVD just repeats the word over and over again ("in, in, in, in in,"). There's no use of the word in the sentence to connect the word to the animation to help the child remember it and recall it later on. As a first grade teacher, I know there are MANY more entertaining and engaging ways to teach sight words. This was a HUGE disappointment!
