Dolch pre-primer sight words worksheets
Each print is a different sheet. You don't need to sign up.
The pre-primer words are your first forty sight words: little words like the, my, and jump that show up in almost every book you'll ever open.
Two grades, one set of words: both print from the same 40. Print one here, or open a grade for examples and teaching notes.

The Dolch pre-primer list is the first rung of the sight-word ladder: forty words like the, see, my, and jump, chosen because they fill the picture books read to three and four year olds. This Pre-K sheet prints a handful of them to trace and then write, in a big print face on penmanship guides, so the words get known by shape before school asks for them.
