Congratulations on your purchase of the Really Good
Stuff® Make-A-Word Center™: 2nd 100 Fry Sight Words,
a hands-on activity that offers explicit, systematic
practice for primary students to master high-frequency
words.
Objective
Using a predictable structure, students recognize, read,
build, and write common high-frequency words.
Meeting Common Core State Standards
This Really Good Stuff™ Make-A-Word Center:
1st 100 Fry Sight Words is aligned with the
following Common Core State Standard for
English Language Arts:
Phonics and Word Recognition
R.F. K.3c Read common high-frequency words by sight.
This Really Good Stuff product includes:
• 4 Fry Sight Word Center Work Mats
• 100 Fry Word Cards
• 104 Lowercase Foam Letters
• Compartmentalized Box with lid
• Set of 21 Stickers
• This Really Good Stuff® Teaching Guide
®
This multisensory sight word kit includes the Fry words
students encounter in early reading material. Early
readers are already familiar with high-frequency words as
part of their listening and speaking vocabularies, but
reading and spelling those words often causes confusion.
By focusing on and manipulating one word at a time,
students internalize its appearance and recognize it in
other contexts, building reading confidence and fluency.
The Make-A-Word Center™: 2nd 100 Fry Sight Words
features 100 of the first words early readers must learn.
Because most of these words cannot be learned through
the use of pictures, practicing them in isolation in a
variety of ways helps students narrow their focus and
recognize the words with automaticity. Students see the
word, say it, build it using individual foam letters, and
then write it. This repeated, predictable, systematic
exposure to these early high-frequency words benefits all
readers, including those learning English as a second
language or struggling with word recognition. Use this
activity with individual students and small groups as a
direct instruction tool or in a literacy center.

Sight Words
• Should you need this or any other Really Good Stuff®
Teaching Guide, download them from our Web site at
www.reallygoodstuff.com.
• Label the box compartments with the Stickers.
• Store the Word Cards, the Foam Letters and the
Word Center Mats in the provided Compartmentalized
Box. Place dry erase markers or dry erase crayons
(not included) in the box also.
• Make copies of the included Record Sheets for data
collection as a progress monitoring tool and as a
guide for students’ targeted practice.
Introducing the Make-A-Word Center™: 2nd 100 Fry
Sight Words
Model the Activity
First, set aside words that the students cannot read
with automaticity. Make a copy of the Teacher Record
Sheet, one for each student. Highlight the words to be
studied. Also make a copy of the Student Record Sheet
for each child to self-monitor progress. Begin by selecting
a Word Card and placing it on the Work Mat in the first
column under Read It. Read the word aloud with
students. Have students name the letters in the word
and then demonstrate how to gather the Foam Letters
needed to build that word. Build the word in the second
column, Build It. Read the word aloud. Next, model how to
write the word in the third column, Write It, using a dry
erase marker and saying each letter as you form it. Be
sure to read the entire word after spelling it aloud and
writing it. Point to and read each of the three versions of
the word, carefully tracking. Determine your criteria for
students to check off words in the student box on their
sheet, either reading them with automaticity or spelling
them without seeing them. Show students how to place
all materials back into the appropriate compartments.
Wipe off the Work Mat with a soft cloth, completely
erasing the word. Keep track of your students’ progress
by checking off the mastered words in the teacher box on
the word list.
Tips for the At-Risk Student or English
Language Learner
• Practice only a few words each week.
• Post the words in the classroom and review
them daily.

EZread™ 2nd 100 Fry Phrase & Short Sentence Cards
Congratulations on your purchase of the EZread™
2nd 100 Fry Phrase & Short Sentence Cards, a
versatile set that helps primary students master
important sight words and common phrases.
The words chosen for these cards are taken only
from the 2nd 100 Fry word list and are easily
decodable words. Each Fry word is shown in two
common phrases on a card.
Objective
To read Fry word phrases fluently and automatically.
Managing the EZread™ 2nd 100 Fry Phrase & Short
Sentence Cards
• Should you need this or any other Really Good
Stuff® Teaching Guide, download them from our
Web site at www.reallygoodstuff.com.
• Keep the cards organized in numerical order.
Each Fry word in the phrase is colored, and there
are two different phrases on a card. The cards
are on a ring that can be easily opened to make
sets for differentiated practice.
• Mark the phrases that challenge students to
keep track of their progress and to aid in
assessment. (See Record Sheets.)
• Storing the cards in baggies or on separate rings
will allow you to access them easily during a
lesson or when you want to place a selection of
cards in a learning center.
Meeting Common Core State Standards
This Really Good Stuff® EZread™ 2nd 100 Fry
Phrase & Short Sentence Cards set is aligned
with the following Common Core State Standards
for English Language Arts:
Phonics & Word Recognition
R.F. K.3c Read common high-frequency words
by sight.
R.F. 1.3b Decode regularly spelled one-syllable words.
R.F. 1.3g Recognize and read grade-appropriate
irregularly spelled words.
This Really Good Stuff® product includes:
• 100 Two-sided Cards on an O-ring
• This Really Good Stuff® Teaching Guide
Using word card activities, you can provide your
individual or small group of emergent readers the
repetitive practice they need to master sight words
and short phrases. This helps students recognize
some of the most frequently occurring words
automatically by sight, rather than by sounding out
letter sounds that they are still learning.
Similar practice with reading common phrases is a
great way to improve on the sight-word knowledge
base and to build reading fluency. Because most
sight words do not stimulate a visual image in the
mind of the reader, practicing them in common
phrases helps students attach meaning and
context to otherwise abstract words. The repeated
contextualized exposure to sight words allows you to
reach all readers, especially those struggling with
word recognition or learning English.
Introducing EZread™ 2nd 100 Fry Word Phrase &
Short Sentence Cards
1. Determine which Fry words your student needs
to practice.
2. Hold up each card and have the student read
the two phrases aloud. Observe his or her
reading behaviors, noting words on the Record
Sheet that slow the student.
3. Set aside those cards that the student cannot
read fluently.
4. Have the student study the words and phrases
further using the activities on the following page.
5. After a time, again display the cards one at a
time, increasing the pace slightly as you hold
them up for the student.
6. Repeat until the student is able to read the
words automatically.
7. Once the student knows all of the words in the
set, challenge the student to use each phrase
correctly in a sentence.
All teaching guides can be found online.

Record Sheet 1
EZread™ 2nd 100 Fry Phrase & Short Sentence Cards
Assessment
You may use the Record Sheets as a screener to
determine which words the student needs to
practice, and then use them again later for progress
monitoring. You may choose to circle incorrectly read
words and make notations. Dating the Record
Sheets and using different colors each time you
progress monitor is a great way to document
progress for parents. For struggling readers, provide
only a few cards at a time to avoid frustration.
Activities for Further Practice
Fry Word Card Cut-Apart
Select a sight word phrase and write it on an index
card in large print. Have the student read it and
then cut up the phrase into words. Then ask the
student to put the
words back into the
correct order of
the phrase.
Rainbow Write
Have students
“rainbow write” the Fry word (or any word causing
frustration) in a chosen crayon color, saying each
letter as it is formed. They read it aloud, tracking,
then they write over that word using different colors,
repeating the process.
Phrase Hunt
Have students hunt for phrases in the context of
reading materials, classroom labeling, and sentences
you display for them. Or have them find the word or
phrase on the board, and then come up and point
to it.
Use It in Context
Use the phrases in sentences as you go. Then
challenge the student to do the same. The
sentences can be simple as long as they make
sense. Choose a sentence or phrase, and have the
student read the sentence back to you and then
copy it in his or her notebook.
