Sight Words sight words and spelling words
Upon 3rd grade, children's sight words should be over 1200 words. Finish this list means you can spell all words in Dolch and Fry, and you should be able to deal with elementary-level writing now.

Don't confuse sight words and spelling words. Sight words need your instinct reflection; spelling words may let you think a while. Some words possibly are hard for 3rd-grade students, who need to practice until 5th grade to master them entirely as sight words.

We develop online tools for each word, like interactive cards. However, the nature of spelling is on paper, not on screen. It is why we also provide printable worksheets for offline exercise.
