10 First Grade Sight Words Worksheets
Today, I’m sharing fun first grade sight words worksheets, games, and lists of words kids can practice.
First graders have been in the reading game for at least a year by the time they reach this grade level.
Their reading skills have improved just by mastering the pre-k and kindergarten sight words lists. Needless to say, learning sight words should be part of their routine at this point!
Sight words are common words that children will have a hard time reading if they do not have them memorized by sight. These words are not phonetic and cannot be “sounded out” or decoded using the letter sounds. Sight words, and high fluency words, will be a part of their school routine for the next few years!

Here, you will find printable worksheets that offer a variety of fun activities. Without a doubt, they help young learners learn the important sight words and improve their reading fluency.

I Have Who Has (Superheroes) is a fun, chain-reaction, sight word game for first grade. Play as a whole group or assign to small groups.
Students quickly learn the pattern of this game, and get excited to call out their card. “I have _____, Who has____?” – reading the 1st grade sight word at the bottom of the card, next to the colorful superhero.
Kids can’t argue who goes first, and you don’t have to make that decision! A starting card, and ending card are included.
