EYFS - High Frequency Words Mat/ Sight Words/ Tricky Words List

This resource is a word mat showing the full list of high-frequency words/ sight words/ tricky words taught to children in EYFS as part of learning to read and write.

High frequency words (AKA tricky/ sight words) are words which appear with great frequency in the English language and so are necessary to learn early on in the process of learning to read and write. What makes them ‘tricky’ or ‘sight’ words is that they are often not phonetically decodable and so children must simply learn to recognise them by sight.

If you are teaching children how to read and write, check out my phase 2 and phase 3 phonics lessons - all the resources and activities you need to cover all of phase 2 and phase 3 phonics.
