- Printable pages that are perfect for classroom or home
- Ring-ready cards to help you keep them organized
Seriously — once you punch a hole in the corner and clip them to a ring, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without them!
How to Print:
- Print single-sided on white cardstock for durability
- Choose “Actual Size” or 100% scale in your printer settings
- Optional: Laminate before cutting to make the cards reusable
- Cut along the yellow borders for clean, even flashcards
How to Use:
- Add to a ring clip for daily review or on-the-go learning
- Use in morning work, centers, take-home folders, or 1:1 practice
- Play games like Sight Word Bingo, Memory, Go Fish, or Swat the Word
- Pair with tracing, coloring, or writing worksheets for extra reinforcement
These are especially helpful for kids who thrive with hands-on visuals. Make it playful — let them decorate the backs or sort by color, shape, or how many letters are in each word!
