Colour by Sight Words Worksheets – A Fun Way to Practise High-Frequency Words

Bring some colour and creativity into your literacy sessions with this engaging set of Colour by Sight Words Worksheets. Designed to help students recognise and recall high-frequency sight words, these activities turn reading practice into a fun, hands-on task. Each worksheet includes a colour key that matches specific sight words with colours. Students read the words, identify them in the picture, and colour the sections accordingly. This simple yet effective process helps reinforce word recognition through visual discrimination and repetition — key components of reading fluency.

Differentiated Sight Word Practice for Every Learner

With 10 printable colouring pages in the pack, you can choose the right level of challenge for your students. Each page focuses on between 4 and 7 sight words, allowing you to easily differentiate for early learners or extend those ready for more complexity.

Perfect for literacy rotations, independent practice, or homework, these pages offer a no-prep way to combine reading and creativity.

Make sight word learning bright, engaging, and stress-free with this set of Colour by Sight Words worksheets! Answer sheets are included in the download for quick marking and self-checking.
