italicized words are from Fry Instant Word List-First 100 Word List
Additional high frequency words may be added from anything read during Guided Reading. These do not include
content vocabulary words. There is no particular order in which to add words, but teachers should try not to add two
in the same week that begin with the same letter. They should also try to include some easier words (me, go, in) along
with some of the trickier ones (what, friend, there).
Once words are presented, students are held accountable to spelling the words correctly in any writing they do.
