Practice weekly sight words to strengthen letter-sound recognition, spelling, and reading fluency with six weeks of sight word homework worksheets.
Sight Word Homework Activities for Early Readers
Reading and writing skills start with letter-sound recognition.
But after that…
Reading fluency is the result of a lot of repetition and memorization.
Each weekly worksheet in this resource introduces a group of six words from the Dolch Pre-primer word list. Each weekly worksheet focuses on a specific group of words and includes a different daily activity.
Monday: students read, trace, and write sight words.
Tuesday: students read and complete a color by sight word activity.
Wednesday: students write the sight words in rainbow colors.
Thursday: students identify the correct spelling of the sight words when given a list of three different spelling options.
Students complete each weekly worksheet and demonstrate they can correctly read and spell grade-appropriate words.
