Sight Word Reading Practice

Sight words are the words a child reads on sight, without sounding them out, and they carry most of an early sentence. This printable set gives children several ways to meet the same words: reading them in a sentence, filling in the missing word, tracing it, and writing it themselves.

The sentence fill-in pages show a sentence with one word missing and a small choice of words to pick from, which asks a child to read for meaning rather than guess from the shape. Word cards sit alongside the pages so the same words can be sorted, matched, hidden around a room, or laid out into a sentence before writing it.

Tracing and writing pages give the hand practice with the words that come up most often, and the repetition is spread across the set so no page feels like a drill. Use a few pages at a time, and read the sentence aloud together first. Instant digital download, letter paper size, for personal and classroom use.
