Kindergarten Age 5-6 Worksheets and Workbooks

Find Early Learning Success with Printable Kindergarten Worksheets

Kindergarten is an exciting and challenging time. For many kids, this is the most time they've spent away from home and their parents on a regular basis. For all kids, this is a time of intense learning and growth. They’ll continue to practice their letters and sounds as they acquire new vocabulary, improve their handwriting, and start expressing their feelings more effectively.

Mrs Wordsmith has a variety of resources perfect for this transitional time, including kindergarten worksheets, kindergarten workbooks, books, and a card game. Some of the resources described on this page are appropriate for other age groups as well, so you may have seen them before.

For kids who are still mastering their ABCs, our handwriting worksheets for kindergarten (also available in workbook form) provide extra support. These teach key alphabet and handwriting skills for beginning writers, combining a funny story with letter-writing practice. The best kindergarten worksheets are ones that make kids want to keep turning the page, even without being told they should, and we design our resources with this in mind.

For more kindergarten English worksheets, check out Foolproof Phonics Part 1, a program based on systematic synthetic phonics. It introduces kids to the most common sound-letter correspondences, which are key to successful reading instruction. Add our Blah Blah Blah Phonics Card Game into the mix and kids will be laughing and jumping up and down while they build foundational literacy skills. Quick to play and learn, it will quickly become a top request! 

Still, not all words are easy to sound out using phonics. High-frequency words are common words that experts recommend kids memorize by sight, to help accelerate their reading. That's why we created kindergarten sight word worksheets for our Foolproof Sight Words printable workbook. This workbook covers 200 important high-frequency words through coloring activities and puzzles. 

Looking for more workbooks for kindergarten that include practice with high-frequency words? Our See It! Stick It! Sight Words sticker books are preschool and kindergarten workbooks with a colorful interactive twist. To use them, kids match reusable stickers with 400 high-frequency words.

Beyond kindergarten worksheets, you can expand your child’s vocabulary with our My Epic Life Word Book and My Epic Life Daily Word Workout. Like our other resources, these delightful books encourage bite-sized learning, a method focused on one topic at a time in short sessions. Studies suggest bite-sized learning is up to 90% more effective than cramming a lot at once. Since vocabulary is a strong predictor of future academic success,  it's never too early to start introducing children to new words in short sessions like this. Full of the vocabulary kids need to express themselves, My Epic Life features hilarious illustrations, brainteasers, inspiration, and more. 

For a bit of everything, our Colossal English workbook for kindergarten covers a whole year of English learning, reinforcing phonics, letters and sounds, vocabulary, high-frequency words, and handwriting. What a great way to take the stress out of hunting for worksheets for 6-year olds...
