Description
A beginning reader does not sound out does, been or goes — those words have to be known on sight, and the fastest way to know them is to meet them again and again inside a story worth reading. This sight words reading comprehension worksheet takes seven words from the Second sight word list — does, green, around, been, found, its and goes — and folds every one of them into a short original story about a little green frog who lives beside a quiet pond. The frog hops around the tall grass, hides under the reeds, finds a busy fly and settles back on his lily pad, and each sentence is written to first-grade measures so a student who is still building fluency can read the whole page on his or her own.
This 1st grade sight words worksheet is a three-page, no-prep printable. Page one carries the illustrated story, page two carries the questions, and the last page is the answer key. Students read the 107-word passage, then answer five multiple-choice questions with three fill-in-the-bubble choices each. The questions are pulled from all four paragraphs, so a child cannot answer them from the opening sentences alone, and every answer is stated plainly in the text. Print it, hand it out, and the reading, the sight word practice and the grading are already done for you.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- A 107-word original story built from seven Second sight words and 5 multiple-choice questions
Three things make this sight words reading comprehension worksheet worth the ten minutes it takes. First, sight words and comprehension are practiced together instead of on two separate sheets, so a child reads real sentences rather than a list of words in isolation. Second, the passage is measured on grade rather than guessed at, which means the sentence length and the vocabulary match what a first grader meets on a reading assessment. Third, the questions ask where, what and why, so students practice finding evidence in a text instead of simply recognizing a word they have already memorized.
Ways to Use It
- Have students circle the words does, green, around, been, found, its and goes in the story before they answer.
- Read the story aloud once, then let students reread it quietly and answer on their own.
- Use the five questions as a quick reading check in a small group or a guided reading rotation.
- Ask students to write one new sentence about the frog using two of the sight words.
