Reading Worksheets and Workbooks

 

Excel at Learning to Read with our Reading Worksheets

 

Reading is an essential part of any child's education. Our literacy worksheets and workbooks tackle the five building blocks of reading: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. By targeting these five areas, we will help your child grow into a strong and confident reader. Reading is not only key to success in English, but in other subjects as well. 


Check out reading worksheets from Mrs Wordsmith that help boost phonics skills and recognition of high-frequency words, or work through our growing collection of reading workbooks that holistically approach reading at the grade level best suited to your child.  Get started with our Foolproof Phonics worksheets and Sight Words sticker books to get your child on the path to reading, and take hilarious brain breaks with our Blah Blah Blah Phonics Card Game.


For younger readers, it's important to build phonemic awareness -- this is the ability to identify and manipulate the individual sounds that make up speech. A good way to work on phonemic awareness is with these literacy worksheets, which teach kids to identify and understand how phonemes differ, then develop phonemic awareness further with activities that teach them to blend and segment individual sounds in spoken words. 


Once your child has mastered phonemic awareness, the next step on their learning journey is phonics – the process of systematically mapping phonemes (speech sounds) onto graphemes (letters and letter combinations). Through systematic synthetic phonics instruction, our fun reading worksheets teach kids the sounds that different graphemes make in a structured way, progressing from the most common to the rarest. At this stage, kids will also learn the different ways in which a sound can be spelled.


We also offer worksheets that help with reading fluency, like our Sight Words printable for young kids, or our Reading Comprehension Vocabulary worksheet for older kids. Fluent readers move through texts at a fluid pace, while simultaneously feeling and comprehending the meaning of the text. Our books and worksheets help kids actively enjoy reading. We know that even slightly older readers who lack fluency are often still struggling with decoding, which may impact their reading progress at school. Revision with the products we’ve designed for younger kids may be a low-pressure way for older readers to get some extra help.


Once kids master decoding words, they need rich vocabularies to continue to gain reader confidence. You can also help kids work on their vocabulary with one of our hilariously illustrated Word a Day books. These books focus on the words that kids need to know for school, and present them within a relevant context. Context helps kids better understand what each word means, how it relates to the world around them, and how it is used. Building context around a new word helps kids better retain this word in memory. For older kids, we offer reading comprehension worksheets in our English workbooks and our Reading Comprehension Vocabulary printable. These include reading comprehension KS1 worksheets and KS2 reading comprehension worksheets.


Wherever your child is on their reading journey, our expert-designed reading workbooks, reading comprehension worksheets, games, and books are guaranteed to give them the tools they need to become great readers.
