Free 1st Grade Reading Handouts

This Decodable Sentence Pyramids Worksheet are designed for Kindergarten and First Grade students, offering two differentiated activities to cater to varying skill levels. One activity focuses on building sentences from simple words, helping students connect individual words to form complete sentences. The other activity emphasizes comprehension, encouraging students to understand and engage with the sentences they create to develop confidence and fluency in reading. Focusing on CVC words and sight words, which are foundational for early literacy, these worksheets gradually increase sentence complexity to help students enhance their decoding skills, improve comprehension, and build a solid foundation for reading success.

The Differentiated Kindergarten IMSE OG Companion for concepts 1 through 8 is an essential resource designed to enhance the learning experience for young students, particularly in the domains of reading and spelling. This versatile tool is tailored to accommodate the diverse needs of both general education and special education classrooms, making it a must-have for any kindergarten educator.

I use this with my special education students as a replacement to the IMSE OG printables for red words, word dictation and sentence dictation so that my students are able to participate in their grade level content even if it is not at their work level.

How to Use Red Words: On the first page, students match letters of the red word first using magnetic letters, then using letter coins, and finally using scrabble letters. On the second page, students place the bumpy screen behind the paper. Then they trace the red word and write the red word in the letter boxes. On the third page, students use letter stamps and a red stamp pad to stamp the word as many times on the line as they can fit.

How to Use Word Dictation: First, students will match the dictated word letters using scrabble letters. Then, they will write or trace the word on the line below the scrabble letters. They will complete each word at the same pace as the classroom.

How to Use Sentence: First, teacher or student cut out each word box (teacher picks level colored or black depending on student needs). If using the colored word boxes, the student matches the word box color to the empty boxes
to complete the dictated sentence. If the student is using the black word boxes, they will listen to the dictated sentence and order the word boxes to complete the dictated sentence. After gluing the word boxes in correct sentence order, the student will re-write or trace the sentence on the lines below.
