About this worksheet

Sight words appear so often that children benefit from knowing their spellings quickly, even when every part cannot yet be sounded out. Words such as the, said and where do not follow the sound patterns a beginner expects, so they have to be learned by looking and writing. On this page each line has one word printed on the left and a line to write it on. The child looks at the word, says it, looks at every letter in order, and writes it.

Support pages use very short words such as is, to and go, standard pages use words such as like, said and look, and challenge pages use longer words such as there, what and where. Watch whether your child looks back at the model between letters rather than writing from the first letter alone. After writing, have the child point under each letter, read the word aloud, and say it in a sentence so meaning and spelling stay connected.

What your child will learn

  • Write common kindergarten words from a model
  • Check every letter in order
  • Remember word length and letter order
  • Say a word and use it in a sentence

Common Core standard: RF.K.3.C
