Especially Fry Word Tracing Worksheet
For a child who already spells most Fry words correctly, "especially" — if it's still shaky — is worth isolating on its own rather than folding back into a full-list review, since targeted practice on the specific gap tends to close it faster.
"Especially" is one of the Fry Instant Words in the Tenth 100 Words group, chosen for this list because of how often it shows up in everyday English text — recognizing it instantly keeps a young reader moving through a sentence.
If "especially" isn't quite the version you're looking for, the interactive sight word editor linked on this page lets you type any word and generate a matching worksheet on the spot.
