Became Fry Word Tracing Worksheet
"Became" is exactly the kind of word that's easy to skip past when reading quickly and easy to forget when writing from memory — which is precisely the gap repeated tracing is meant to close.
A parent short on time can hand a child this "became" worksheet and a pencil with zero setup — no typing, no picking a style, no waiting on a render, just a page that's already finished.
"Became" is a word most adults stopped consciously noticing decades ago, precisely because it's so common — that same invisibility to a fluent reader is what makes it worth deliberate practice for a beginner.
