Learn American English with Maestro Sersea Podcast

Welcome to Episode 14 of the Learn American English with Maestro Sersea Podcast. Our 14th podcast episode focuses on improving American English vocabulary and reading skills. Today, we will share Fry’s Sight Words, the First Hundred, Lesson 1 of 5. The Fry's Sight Words List is a list of the most common words in the English language. Dr. Edward Fry compiled it in the 1950s, containing the most frequently used words in reading and writing. The words in the list are divided into several levels and are meant to help students learn how to read and write more fluently. The Fry's Sight Words List is often used in classrooms to help students master essential reading and writing skills. In addition, the list is often used to help students with disabilities who may have difficulty with reading and writing. The list contains 1,000 words and is organized into ten levels. Each level comprises 100 words, and the levels progress from the easiest to the more difficult.
