If there are any of these words that give the learner trouble, these are the words that you need to start with. In this 3-5 pack, I’ve also included a 200 Common Sight Word list and checklist. It is a quick sight word assessment based on Fry’s first 200 words to get a good idea of your learner’s base line knowledge of sight words. The next time I assessed, the learner got about, after, and again within one second. About, after, and again were also read the first time I assessed, but not within one second (hence the red horizontal line). So from my markings, I can tell that the learner read all within one second. Blue ink was used on the second assessment. Helpful Tip: If you use a different colored pen every time you assess (making sure to also write the date in that particular color), you’ll be better able to keep track of WHEN your learners mastered each sight word.įor example, in the image above, I used red ink the first time I assessed. On subsequent assessments, learners can read all the words again, but listen specifically for the words with no marking or just a – in the blank to see if they can become a + this time.If learners read the word correctly within one second, place a cross (+) to indicate they have mastered that word.If learners take longer than one second, but still read the word correctly, place a vertical line ONLY in the blank (-).If learners skip the word or read it incorrectly, do not mark anything in the blank beside that sight word.On the sight word checklist, include your learner’s name and the date(s) of the assessment.The goal is for learners to be able to read the word within one second of seeing it. Learners go through the list and read each word. Learners use a scrap piece of paper to cover all but one column of sight words. Pulling words from several lists also makes these sight word lists more comprehensive. Essentially, it’s against the law to use the exact same words from one list. The reason I combined high frequency words from various lists is because most sight word lists are copyrighted. The 5th grade sight words come from online fifth grade word lists most of Fry’s fifth one-hundred words.
