Continuing the Sixth 100 Words progression
Group 3 continues from Group 2, covering the next 25 words of the Sixth 100 Words list. By this point in the sequence, a child has usually built real momentum with the overall pattern of practicing a new small batch at a time.
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
Occasionally revisiting Group 1 and Group 2 alongside this one helps confirm earlier words are staying solid, not just the newest ones. Every worksheet here downloads as a free, print-ready PDF with no account required.
