Building on Group 1
Group 2 continues directly from Group 1, covering the next 25 words of the Eighth 100 Words list. Working through these groups in order, rather than jumping around, keeps the overall Eighth 100 Words vocabulary building steadily.
Where the Eighth 100 Words list fits in the full 1,000
The Eighth Hundred covers Fry words #701 through #800 and continues that curriculum-specific pattern, with more math and science vocabulary ("decimal," "equal," "experiment") appearing alongside descriptive words about people and places ("business," "history," "valley"). Words at this frequency rank are used often enough to be worth direct, dedicated practice, but rarely enough that most of them represent genuinely new territory for a child compared to the earlier, more universally common hundreds.
