Ten high-frequency sight words, such as the, said and you, that appear in almost every early reader. Your child traces each word, fills gaps in short sentences, unscrambles letters and finishes with a parent-read spelling test.
Print the PDF or complete it on screen. Write the student's name and date at the top.
Read the instructions for each part together before starting. Encourage working to be shown.
Mark with the answer sheet. Use the model answers and success criteria as a guide rather than a single right answer.
Record the score, celebrate what went well, then follow the "What's next" suggestion.
