By the 3rd/4th grade students should be fluent readers. Some of our students are not. Below are three papers that can be printed out that show the 65 most important sounds that students should have MEMORIZED.
The other file called "Dolch Words" are the words from Pre-Primer (preschool) to Third Grade that all students should be able to read fluently. Practice these with your child to help them along.
If you would like to practice, click on the files below and print/save them and practice the sounds with your 3rd/4th grader (and any K-4 children you have).
