About this resource
Description
First grade sight words are the everyday words a young reader meets on almost every page, and reading them instantly is what frees a child to think about the story instead of the letters. The Grandma’s House First Sight Words Reading Comprehension Worksheet puts eight of those words — going, his, again, old, walk, ask, her and every — inside a warm little story about a boy who visits his grandma, so the words are practiced in real sentences rather than on a flashcard. Every target word is printed in bold, which gives a first grader a clear visual cue to slow down, look closely and read the word on sight.
This first grade reading comprehension worksheet is a three-page, no-prep download. Page one holds the illustrated story Grandma’s House with a full-color picture that supports the text, page two asks five multiple-choice comprehension questions, and page three is the complete answer key. Students read the passage once for enjoyment and a second time for detail, then fill in the bubble beside the best answer. It works beautifully for guided reading groups, independent morning work, a literacy center, or a quick reading check.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- 1 illustrated first grade sight words story (111 words) with 8 bold target words
- 5 multiple-choice comprehension questions
Three things make this resource effective. First, it builds automatic word recognition, because the eight sight words repeat naturally throughout the story instead of appearing once. Second, it links decoding to meaning — a child who can read the words still has to remember who the boy visited, how he traveled and what he did to help, which is exactly what comprehension assessments ask. Third, the Grandma’s House First Sight Words Reading Comprehension Worksheet builds confidence, because the passage is short enough to finish in one sitting and the picture gives a struggling reader a way in.
Teachers and parents can stretch the practice in simple ways. Ask your child to hunt for the bold words a second time and tally how often each one appears. Write the eight words on index cards and play a quick matching game before reading. Have students retell the story in order using the words first, next and last, or draw their own picture of a place they like to visit and label it with the same sight words. Reading the passage aloud together on a second day builds fluency and expression as well as accuracy.
