First Grade Sight Words & Flash Cards

Success with first grade sight words will turn your child's reading and spelling world upside down!

Give your student every possible advantage by providing lots of practice with these essential words. 

Remember that mastering these all important sight words is essential to early learning success in reading, writing and spelling. 

With that in mind, we're furnishing not one, but TWO, free sets of flash cards.

Set One

The first set of sight word flash cards is for quick-reading practice.

Here's a screen shot of some of the flash cards. The printable set contains more.

Set Two

The second set of sight word flash cards is for early-learning spelling practice. These are the same words used in the set above. In most words of 3 or more letters, one letter is missing.

Ask your first grader to supply the missing letter, then read the word.  (Supply the word for the child if necessary.)  

Here's a peek at a few of the flash cards. There are more in the printable set.
