Should sight words be taught before teaching phonics?

Asked by Eggie (5921points) May 30th, 2014

In teaching kindergartens how to read, should a teacher teach the students sight words using flash cards before teaching students how to phonetically sound out words, or should the phonics be taught first and the sight words after?
