The first quarter of the Sixth 100 Words words
Group 1 covers the first 25 words of the Sixth 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 Sixth 100 Words list fits in the full 1,000
The Sixth Hundred covers Fry words #501 through #600 and leans further into descriptive and topic-specific vocabulary — words about nature and science ("energy," "forest," "eggs," "cells") appear alongside words about people and feelings ("beautiful," "happy," "believe"), showing how mid-frequency vocabulary starts splitting across different subject areas rather than staying purely generic the way the earliest hundreds do. By this point in the list, a word's usefulness is less about how often it appears in absolutely any sentence, and more about how often it appears in the specific kinds of sentences a child's reading material actually contains.
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.
