About This Worksheet

This Foundation worksheet gives children practice recognising and using common high-frequency words. Repeated reading and writing in meaningful sentences can help children become more automatic with familiar words.

I Can Checklist

  • I can read familiar high-frequency words.
  • I can write the words carefully.
  • I can use a familiar word in a simple sentence.

How to Use It

Read the words aloud together, then practise them in short phrases or sentences. Keep the practice brief and revisit the same words regularly so children build confidence and automatic recognition.

Parent Tip

Look for these common words while reading a favourite book. Point to one word at a time and ask your child to read it in the sentence rather than practising the word only as a list.
