The Bugville Jr. stories incorporate both sight words and wall words, and are designed for easy reading. This helps children feel more comfortable with the learning aspects of the stories.
Sight words are words that are used frequently but may be difficult to sound out or may be confused with other words. Because children often have trouble reading sight words phonetically, they can benefit instead from the whole word approach in which they memorize each word.
Wall words are words that teachers commonly emphasize in the classroom to improve reading and learning skills. Although many of these words are used in the classroom, they may not be used regularly at home and children can benefit greatly from memorizing each word.
