Read it, trace it, write it, find it

A sight word is learned whole, not sounded out, so each word comes four ways in a row — and then has to be picked out of a line of words that look nearly the same.

How it works
Ages4–8TypeLetters

Four times through, then pick it out.

A sight word worksheet generator, printable as a PDF. Three words a page, each in its own panel: the word to read in big print, a primary-ruled line of dotted copies to trace, a blank line to write it, and a row of six words to circle it in — the word twice among look-alikes such as was and saw, or the same word with a b turned into a d. The words come from the Dolch lists, pre-primer to third grade, and no word repeats until the list runs out; or type your own list for the week. Every letter is ball-and-stick print, the shapes a child sees in class. With an answer key.
