I am a retired teacher and am now tutoring my grandson (pre-k) and great nephew (K) due to the pandemic. I have been making everything by hand (old school) and then sending it to them as they both live a distance (out of state ) from me. Thank you for sharing these worksheets, they are a time saver.

Hi,
I simply wanted to thank you for making these resources available for free. I am so relieved, blessed, and thankful to have found your website. It is currently 10pm and I was just about to hand write each of the sight words for a couple of the word lists, when I came across your site. I love that you color coded the flashcards by list and have recommended activities. I will surely recommend this site to teachers at my school. You are truly a life saver and I am thankful for your generosity and creativity.
Sincerely,
A tired 3rd grade teacher
Oh my goodness! I am so glad that you found them helpful. I remember being an exhausted teacher and it’s not fun.
