About this resource
Description
Word families help young readers spot a chunk they already know and use it to read many new words. This ick word family worksheet gives first graders practice reading and writing short-i -ick words such as brick, chick, trick, and kick, so the rime becomes automatic and new words feel easy to decode.
About This Worksheet
The page opens with a word bank of eight -ick words. Below it are six simple sentences, each with a box where one word is missing. Children read each sentence, think about which -ick word makes sense, and write it in the box. Two words in the bank are extra, so students must read carefully instead of guessing. A crayon-style picture of a stack of red bricks adds a friendly visual clue for one of the sentences. The answer key on page two shows the correct word for every sentence, which makes checking quick for teachers and parents. It is a handy 1st grade word families worksheet for centers, homework, or small-group phonics time.
What’s Included
- A word bank with eight -ick word family words
- Six fill-in-the-blank sentences with answer boxes
- A colorful brick picture that supports one sentence
- A complete answer key
Why Kids Love It
First, every sentence tells a small, familiar story about puppies, chicks, and apples, so reading feels like fun instead of a drill. Second, the word bank gives beginning readers support while still asking them to choose the word that fits the meaning. Third, writing each word in its box builds spelling skills alongside decoding, so the -ick pattern sticks.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before starting the ick word family worksheet, build -ick words together with letter cards by changing only the first sound, such as st, br, and ch. After the page, ask children to use the two leftover words, quick and sick, in sentences of their own. You can also hunt for -ick words in a favorite storybook and add them to a class word family chart, or play a quick game of word family tic-tac-toe.
