Free 1st Grade Sight Word Games
Five different games, all built from the 41 Dolch First Grade sight words. They run in the browser on a phone, tablet or laptop — nothing to install and nothing to sign up for.
Free. All of them.
Pick a game
Every one of these opens already loaded with the 1st grade list below (a game takes up to 40 words at a time).
-
Word Catcher
Catch the falling letters in order to spell each word. -
Brooklyn's Words
Catch the letters as they swim by, or fill in the missing one. -
Spelling Twister
Steer a tornado to gobble up the letters and spell each word. -
Word Builder Relay
Unscramble shuffled letter tiles into slots before time runs out. -
Balloon Pop
A word is called out — pop the balloon that matches it.
Using your child's own list instead
A class list rarely matches a published one. Type this week's words in and you get the same games back, built around those words, in about thirty seconds — no email and no account.
