Heart Word Practice Sheets Bundle | Kindergarten & Grade 1

Heart Word Practice Sheets Bundle | Kindergarten & Grade 1

Support heart word instruction from Kindergarten through Grade 1 with a consistent, phonics-based practice routine!

This bundle includes both the Kindergarten and Grade 1 Heart Word Practice Sheets, covering heart words introduced throughout UFLI Foundations lessons 1–110.

Each one-page activity guides students through saying the word, tapping its phonemes, identifying the irregular part, tracing the word and writing it independently. The predictable format makes these sheets easy to introduce gradually as new heart words are taught.

Use them before reading a decodable text, during small-group instruction, as part of a literacy centre or for additional practice at school or home.
