FAQ
Which first grade words cause the most trouble?
Could, every, once and walk, because none of them follow the phonics rules taught by then. Tracing them a few times each is the fastest route to recognising them on sight.
What is the best way to use a sight word tracing pack?
One page per session, read each word aloud before tracing it, and trace with the finger once before the pencil. The last traced copy in a row should be written without looking at the model.
Which line size should I pick?
Large for preschool and kindergarten, Medium for first and second grade, Small once letters consistently stay inside the guides. The three Ready-made PDFs below are the same page at each size.
How do I print this sight word worksheet?
Click Download PDF and print at 100% scale. The page is already sized for US Letter with printer-safe margins, so no fit-to-page fiddling is needed.
How many words and pages are in this pack?

Can I trace these words in cursive?
Yes, switch Style to Cursive in the panel. The word list stays the same and each row is drawn in joined script, which suits third grade and up.
Can my child practice on a tablet instead of paper?
