Run Fry Word Tracing Worksheet

If a child already reads "run" correctly but writes it inconsistently, that gap between reading and writing is common and exactly what a tracing worksheet like this one is meant to close.

A child who can recognize "run" in a sentence but hesitates when asked to write it alone is showing a completely normal stage of learning, not a gap that needs correcting urgently.

"Run" is worth practicing by itself specifically because many of the Fry Instant Words don't follow regular spelling rules — sounding them out doesn't always work well, so repetition and recognition matter more here than for a word a child could work out phonetically.
