Dear Educator,Teachers know and experts agree that the only way for
children to master sight words—those high frequency, often non-decodable words essential to reading fluency—is through practice.With 100 Words Kids Need to Read, we are pleased to offer a tool to
help you provide that practice in an engaging, effective format.We created the three books in this series—for first, second, and
third graders—with the guidance of literacy experts and classroomteachers. Broken down into manageable groups, words areintroduced in context and reinforced through inviting puzzles andgames. Each sequence of activities is carefully designed to touch onreading, writing, and usage—taking children beyond merevisual recognition of sight words to genuine mastery.
The journey through these skill-building pages will help youngreaders make the successful transition from learning to read toreading to learn. Along the way, they will also receive excellent
preparation for standardized tests. Enjoy the trip!
David GoddyVP, Publisher

If NumbersWere Walking
31 GRO
SIX
If numbers were walking and came in a lineYou’d learn to know them in a very short time.
Oh, look over there! See, here they come!And the first to arrive is the tall number One.
One is thin and quite straight, as suits a leader—Now here comes Two! You know Two, don’t you, reader?
Two stands good and steady on its broad baseAnd is curvy up top to make up its face.
Two is followed by Three, who true to its nameIs behind One and Two, who already came.
Now Four’s like a house with a little steep roof And has got a long stem leading down to its hoof.
Five is the middle, and that’s where you get
When you’re halfway to Ten—now don’t you forget!Let us have Six, and let it be clearThat it’s one more than Five, but not Seven, my dear.
Seven is simple, it’s the name that we gaveTo the number that’s lucky, and funny, and brave.
Eight’s nothing but curves going ‘round on itself And it would fall over if it stood on a shelf.
Nine is a circle on top of a stemAnd comes just before the number called Ten.
Ten is two numbers, zero after a oneAnd we’ve counted them all—now wasn’t that fun?
—Samuel A. Southworth
Directions:
Listen to your teacherread this poem out loud.As you listen and read,
draw a circle around eachnumber word you find.
We did the first onefor you.
