Description
This is a sample of my Heart Words Resource that includes 5 words.
The traditional method for learning high frequency words by rote memorization doesn’t work for all students. Using orthographic mapping strategies, the science-based heart word method teaches students to sound out the parts of irregular words that do follow phonics rules. Students then only need to learn a small portion of the word that is the “tricky part” by heart.
This resource is science based and includes everything you need to successfully teach your students how to utilize the heart word method in order to become successful readers. This NO PREP resource will save you time and allow you to feel confident while teaching your students to become heart word masters!
Included in the full resource:
- Research based best practices and teaching tips for the teacher
- Digital teaching slides for 220 high frequency sight words
- Independent student practice printable for each word
- Foldable craftivity to further extend and enhance student learning for each word
- Words and heading for Heart Words bulletin board

This resource really helped me get started with teaching heart words. I like the way the heart words are scaffolded with repetition, reading and writing.

As a Resource teacher I have older students that still really struggle with high frequency sight words. I am very glad to have a resource that is easy to use and fun for the students. Thank you!

This is a great resource that aligns well with the SOR and the Sound Wall. My students have really learned and retained the heart words I have taught this year! I will be purchasing the whole bundle!

This is a great and very valuable resource. I like how for my younger students there is the cut and paste option, while the sentence writing is more appropriate for my older students. Thanks!

I can’t wait to incorporate this into my classroom next year!

I love that you have two versions of the activity for differentiating! I always get annoyed with the resources from other places and don’t ask them to use them in a sentence or something more challenging.
Renee Nahayowski (verified owner) –
Wow! Thank you so much! My students will definitely benefit from this!
Jill Damm (verified owner) –
I love that this resource allows the students to see and physically manipulate the phonemes in the words. I couldn’t use a few of then based on our phonics program pairing letters for some phonemes differently, i.e. -all, -am, -an

I am anxious to use this heart word resource with the students I work with. I do reading intervention as a Paraprofessional for K – 2. The flip charts will be great for segmenting and to specifically isolate the tricky, heart-word, parts of the word. Thanks!!
