Fry First 100 Sight Word Flash Cards

If you are familiar with the traditional Dolch sight word list, you may or may not be familiar with the Fry sight word list. 

Created by education professor Dr. Edward Fry in 1957 (and later updated), the list includes 1000 high frequency words, broken down into lists of 100. Elementary schools often focus on the first 300 words.

What Is Included

This printable includes flash cards for the first 100 words. There are ten to a page and ten pages.

What You Will Need

  • Printer paper
  • Another option is card stock paper if you would like them to be a little sturdier
  • Scissors
  • You could also use a small paper cutter if you would like to cut the cards out faster
  • If you would like to make the flash cards even sturdier, you could glue them to construction paper after you cut them out.
  • If you would like to make them REALLY sturdy so they will last longer, you could laminate them using laminating pouches and a laminator

How to Prepare the Flash Cards

Print out the pages of flash cards on printer paper or card stock paper.

Use scissors or a paper cutter to cut them out. You can print out every page or only the ones you need at the moment. 

Glue them to construction paper and/or laminate. Again, this is completely up to you.

How to Use the Fry Sight Word Flash Cards

Most of us have used flash cards at some point in our education. What you may not realize is that there are different ways to use them.

Traditional Flash Card Use

When most people think of flash cards they think of the traditional use. And this is a great way to use them with your child. Choose the words that your child is working on. Show your child a flash card and ask them to read the word. 

Memory Game

Choose the words that your child is working on. Print out and prepare TWO SETS of the words. Play a memory game with your child, where they try to find the matching words.

Alphabetical Order

If your child has been working on this skill, have them put words of your choosing in alphabetical order.

How to Store the Fry Sight Word Flash Cards

Once you have printed out and prepared all of the flash cards, you will find yourself with lots of small cards that you don’t want to lose. You could store them in a Ziploc type bag or you could store them in an index card or photo storage case like this one. I love how you can organize so many sets!

    I love your sight word lists for my Kinder classroom. Wondering if you have editable lists so I can change it up to match our school’s list?

      I’m so glad you are finding them helpful! I’m sorry, but I don’t have an editable version at this time.
