The first quarter of the Ninth 100 Words words
Group 1 covers the first 25 words of the Ninth 100 Words Fry list, splitting a full hundred into four smaller, more manageable batches rather than presenting all 100 words at once. Working through this group thoroughly before moving to Group 2 builds a solid base within this hundred to expand from.
Where the Ninth 100 Words list fits in the full 1,000
The Ninth Hundred covers Fry words #801 through #900 and is noticeably weighted toward science and social studies vocabulary — "electric," "insects," "industry," "planets" — reflecting that by word rank #801-900, purely generic high-frequency words have largely been used up, and what remains at this frequency is increasingly tied to specific subjects taught in upper-elementary classrooms rather than everyday conversation.
Using this worksheet effectively
Reviewing this group again briefly after starting Group 2 keeps these words fresh rather than treating them as finished the moment the next group begins. Every worksheet here downloads as a free, print-ready PDF with no account required.
