Hidden Letters in School Words

Read the Word List aloud together first. Have your child count the boxes in a row to find the word, then fill in the missing letters and say the word. Check with the answer key.

Fill in hidden letters to spell 6 school words like pencil, teacher and recess, 4 times each. In a hidden letters puzzle, some letters of a word are missing. You write the missing letters to spell the whole word. The directions on the page read: Read the 6 words in the Word List. Each word is shown 4 times with different letters hidden. Write the missing letter in each empty box. An answer key is included.

In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

Each word is shown 4 times with a different set of letters missing, so your child has to think about every part of the word, not just the start. Writing the same word several times in a row helps the spelling stick.
