Sight Words Test Monday


We had a fabulous week at school!!! I just wanted to share with you some files that you might find useful.  This file contains all of the Kinder,  first grade sight words and all of the 2nd grade sight words for the entire year.

Just a reminder that we will be giving the second grade high frequency words assessment on Monday  (9/14) (the students just have to say these words aloud!!) Again, we are not assessing if they can spell the words, we are assessing if they can READ the words😊

We will give assessment 2 before the first report card. Assessment 3 will go on the 2nd 9 weeks progress report, Assessment 4 will go on the 2nd 9 weeks report card... (so in other words we will be giving 2 of these assessments per grading period)

​Have a great weekend!!

Chances are several words from the pattern 'list' may appear on test. Click here to see the word pattern list calendar and scheduled tests for this year,
