Kindie Sight Words

To further develop reading skills, we will be studying the first 25 words from the FRY sight word list.

The FRY words are a list of the most commonly appearing words in children’s text, many of which cannot necessarily be read by ‘sounding-out’ the letters, so they must be memorized. We have also attached some suggestions that may be helpful for home practice. We will actively work on learning these words in class, but home practice will be invaluable to your child’s success as a reader in general. When you believe that your child has mastered these first 25, please write a note in their planner. We will assess at school and provide the next 25 words for practice, if they are ready for an additional challenge.

Click this link to access the complete Fry word list, which includes ‘flashcards’ that can be downloaded and used in different ways during home practice.
