Free Printable Language Arts Sheets for Kids — Sight Words, Parts of Speech, Homophones, and More

While I was at it, I made some reading sheets too — no kid asks for this stuff, but four double-sided sheets pinned to the wall can't hurt.

Dolch Sight Words (Front & Back)

The classic Dolch sight word lists, all 220 words organized by level. Print double-sided and laminate.

Front — Pre-Primer & Primer (Pre-K & Kindergarten):

• Pre-Primer (40 words) — orange — the first words kids learn to recognize by sight
• Primer (52 words) — blue — the next set for emerging readers

Back — 1st, 2nd & 3rd Grade:

• 1st Grade (41 words) — green
• 2nd Grade (46 words) — purple
• 3rd Grade (41 words) — teal
• Each grade level is color-coded so kids can track their progress

Parts of Speech & Punctuation (Front & Back)

A grammar reference sheet with everything on two sides.

Front — The 8 Parts of Speech:

• Noun (blue), Verb (red), Adjective (green), Adverb (orange)
• Pronoun (purple), Preposition (teal), Conjunction (pink), Interjection (gold)
• Each card has the definition, example words, and a sentence with the word highlighted

Back — Punctuation & Sentence Types:

• Punctuation Guide — period, question mark, exclamation point, comma, apostrophe, quotation marks — each with an example
• 4 Sentence Types — declarative, interrogative, imperative, exclamatory — color-coded with examples

Homophones & Contractions (Front & Back)

The tricky stuff. Words that sound alike but mean different things, and how two words squish into one.

Front — Common Homophones:

• 12 homophone groups including the classics: there/their/they're, to/too/two, your/you're, its/it's
• Each group has clear definitions and example sentences so kids can see the difference

Back — Contractions Chart:

• All common contractions organized by type: is, not, have, will, am/are/is, and would/had
• Color-coded groups with the full form → contraction format

Alphabet Chart & Handwriting Practice (Front & Back)

For the youngest learners — the full alphabet with pictures, plus a handwriting practice page.

Front — Alphabet Chart:

• 26 letter cards in a 5-column rainbow grid
• Each card shows the uppercase letter, lowercase letter, a common word, and an emoji: A 🍎 Apple, B ⚽ Ball, C 🐱 Cat, and so on
• Color-coded rows cycling through red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple

Back — Handwriting Practice:

• All 26 letters with guide rows — top line, dashed midline, and baseline
• Each row starts with the letter (upper + lower) then light gray trace guides
• "Practice Writing Your Name" section at the bottom with lined space

All four sheets are designed for letter-size paper with large, readable text and print-friendly colors. Print each one double-sided, laminate them, and stick them on the fridge next to the math sheets.

How the PDFs are made

Same as the math sheets — plain HTML/CSS files rendered to PDF with headless Chrome:

The @page { margin: 0 } CSS rule combined with --print-to-pdf-no-header ensures clean output with no browser headers or footers. Edit the HTML, regenerate, and you're done.
