Automaticity is being able to read a word fast, accurately and effortlessly rather than slowly sounding it out.

One way to help your child learn sight words is to write the words on an index card. Then have them draw a picture to help remember the word. Then start practicing reading the words on their cards, eventually they can cover up the picture and read them without looking. #dyslexia #dyslexiatutor
