What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students read common high-frequency words automatically by sight. They recognize the whole printed word in varied contexts.

What Mastery Looks Like

The student reads familiar high-frequency words in mixed lists and simple sentences. Recognition does not depend on a picture or fixed order.

Common Misconceptions

Students may guess from first letter or sentence pattern. They may confuse visually similar common words.

How to Assess It

Show ten common high-frequency words in mixed order, then five within sentences. Ask the student to read both sets.
