About vocabulary & spelling

Worksheets for building word skills

The subcategory brings together eight useful topic groups: Spelling Worksheets, Word Building Worksheets, Compound Words Worksheets, Missing Vowels Worksheets, Jumbled Words Worksheets, Picture Vocabulary Worksheets, Word Families Worksheets, and Homophones Worksheets. They are arranged by the skill your child needs to practise. Start with pictures, missing letters, and simple word building for early learners. Move to word families, compound words, jumbled words, and homophones as your child becomes more confident with reading and writing.

Choose by age and learning level

For a 4 or 5 year old, begin with picture vocabulary, matching, tracing, and missing vowels in short words such as cat or sun. Children in LKG, UKG, or Class 1 may enjoy word building with letter tiles, simple spelling, and word families such as -at or -an. For children aged 7 or 8, try compound words, jumbled words, and common homophones such as see and sea. Read the instructions first and choose a page your child can attempt with some independence.

Simple ways to use them at home or in class

At home, print one or two pages for a short practice session after reading time. Ask your child to say each picture word aloud before writing it, then use one new word in a sentence. In class, place different topics at small-group tables so children can work at a suitable level. Let children check answers with a partner, use letter cards to rebuild difficult words, or draw a picture for a new vocabulary word. Keep a small folder for pages your child wants to practise again.
