About these worksheets
Fill in the blank worksheets ask children to use the whole sentence as a clue, which is the beginning of reading comprehension. The picture version lets 1st graders answer even when the missing word is hard to read; the word-bank version for 2nd and 3rd grade makes them read every option.
All worksheets are free for home and classroom use, print on one Letter or A4 page and come with an answer key. Every set is generated from the same word and number banks as our games, so "Make a new one" gives you unlimited practice.
Tips for parents & teachers
- Read the sentence with the blank as "hmm" first, then test each choice in the gap.
- Ask "how do you know?" so children point to the words that gave the clue.
- Follow up with the Fill in the Blank game online, which reads the sentence aloud.
