Yes โ "better" is a Third Grade sight word, the comparative form of "good" (good, better, best). It's spelled regularly, earning its place through frequent use in comparisons.
I feel much better today.
"Better" follows standard phonics patterns once split into syllables, but as part of an irregular comparison set ("good, better, best" instead of the regular "gooder, goodest"), it's worth teaching alongside its unusual family members so the whole pattern makes sense together.
Teach "good, better, best" as a trio โ since none of them follow the regular "-er/-est" pattern, learning them as a connected set is more effective than teaching each in isolation.
