Sight Word Readers
Beginning readers can use context clues, picture clues, and sight word knowledge to read these printable little books.
Simple Sight Word Readers
I’ve also created a new set of sight word books that teach the same 26 words as the first set – but in a much simpler format. This set is ideal for young learners, struggling learners, and English language learners. Each set of four books has four different themes. Eventually I plan to share all of them for free, but it will take at least a year. If you don’t want to wait, you can purchase the bundle pack.
-
- Set 1: “a”
-
- Set 2: the
-
- Set 3: see
-
- Set 4: “I”
-
- Set 5: “look”
-
- Set 6: “at”
More Sight Word Books
After creating the first 26 sets to use alongside Reading the Alphabet, I’ve had requests for more books. I’m creating additional sets. These later sets loosely correlate with my free phonics books. When I have a large collection, these will also be available for purchase in a bundle pack. I expect that it’s at least year (or more) before I add to this collection. For now you may download each set by clicking on the images below to get to the blog post.
Phonics Books
I’ve shared over 130 books in my free phonics reader collection that are designed to be used alongside my sight word readers or separately. Each book introduces a new phonics pattern and gives practice with simple sentences and bright pictures.
-
- Set 1: -an, -at, -ap, -ab, -an, -ag, -ack
-
- Set 2: -ip, -it-, -ick, -ill, -ick, -id, -in
-
- Set 3: -op, -ock, -ot, -og, -ob
-
- Set 4: -ed, -ell, -en, -eck, -et
-
- Set 5: -ub, -ug, -un, -uck, -um
-
- Set 6: er, ar, ur, ir, or
-
- Set 7: Silent e
-
- Set 8: ee & oo
-
- Set 9: ai, ay, igh, -y
-
- Set 10: ea, oa, ow, ie
-
- Set 11: ush, unch, ump, ust, ung, unk
-
- Set 12: and, ash, amp, ang, atch, ank
-
- Set 13: ind, ent, est, old, itch, ink, ing
-
- Set 14: aw, all, oi, oy, ou, ue, ui, ew, dge, ow
-
- Set 15: -s ,-es endings
-
- Set 16: -ed, -ing (suffixes)
-
- Set 17: Compound words
-
- Set 18: Contractions
-
- Set 19: VCCV words
-
- Set 20: VCV words
-
- Set 21: -el, -le, -er, -ar, -or
-
- Set 22: -ie, -ey, -y
-
- Set 23: -ture, -age, -on
-
- Set 24: Prefixes and Suffixes
“Color Me” Emergent Readers
Unlike my sight word books, these are black and white so children can color them. They do not get progressively harder with set. Instead, each set has three books – level 1, 2, and 3. These books are created to correlate with my preschool and kindergarten themes.

-
- Transportation
-

Guided Reading
Guided reading is a instructional approach that involves a teacher working with a small group of readers. During the lesson, the teacher provides a text that students can read with support, coaching the learners as they use problem-solving strategies to read the text. The ultimate goal is independent reading.
If you’d like to know more, be sure to read my 10-part series. Many of these printables come from that series.

Voice to Print Packs
These packs of 40 printable cards are wonderful for teaching children that each word they say matches a word in print. Some children may be ready to learn beginning sight words from these cards as well. I recommend printing the cards, laminating, and cutting them apart to assemble on a metal ring.

-
- Fruit
-
- Forest animals
-
- Toys
-
- Christmas
-
- Transportation
Nonfiction Readers
I’ve begun sharing nonfiction emergent readers that have real photographs as images. These simple books are great for early readers in preschool, kindergarten, and first grade. Each book I share is part of a much larger set that comes with my theme packs, which you may view in my store.
-
- “Kids Can Garden”
-
- “Colorful Mittens”
-
- “I am a Firefighter”
-
- “Pumpkins”
-
- “My Emotions”
Pocket Chart Sentences
Each of my theme packs, which you can view in my store, contain a large variety of pocket chart sentences. I share a small set as a freebie from each theme pack. These are excellent for teaching concepts of print such as concept of word and left to right progression. They’re also great for teaching sight words!

Nancy Mabry says
I just found your website. You have great, simple activities and ideas. I am a retired teacher but I do tutoring and subbing. I have printed some of your free printables, different grade levels, to add to my file to use with students I work with. When you sub in a classroom, you sometimes get that phone call last minute. I like to have readily available activities in my “educational arsenal” when I walk in the door.
Thanks,
NMabry

I’m loving every thing that I’ve seen since I came across this website. Its a great ascess to me and how I plan on getting ready for the following year. Thanks Anna I only wish I could get all this information into one huge notebook… I think your work is great…I’m learning something useful every time I open up your website..
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad it’s been useful for you, Carolyn! You’ve given me inspiration… do you think it would be helpful for people to have an e-book of all my material, indexed? So for example if they’re looking for posts about reading, they could look that up in the download and click on the posts that pertain to it?
dave says
yes anna, i think that making it into an eboook (pdf) would be a
great idea and time-saver for parents and even some ece teachers
alike.
ps. thanks for all the great work you’ve done… sofar and in the future.
~dave in ottawa canada
Anna Geiger says
Dave, I do have an ebook index for my site available now. 🙂 It was last updated the end of January, so it’s due for an update, but you can get it free when you subscribe by e-mail, which you can do at the top of the blog or in the sidebar. It will help you find whatever you need on the blog.
caragh says

sharon says
Is it okay if I make copies of the Summer Reading Challenge for my students? It is a wonderful idea, LOVE IT! I think it might inspire them to read over the summer. Your website is awesome and filled with such great ideas 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Absolutely, Sharon! You are welcome to print and copy any of my printables for your students. I just ask that if another teacher would like to use them, that you direct them to my website to download the material instead of working off your copy. Thanks!
sharon says
Thank you so much:) Absolutely amazing resources!!! I will pass your website onto my colleagues.
Anna Geiger says
Thanks so much for passing on my site to other teachers! I always appreciate that.
Florence says
Anna I like your staff I love them how do I order I’m in Namibia

thanks again!
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Dilek! I’m so glad you’ve found things you can use!
Linda says
I have used many of your ideas/printables for my great granddaughters who are living with me. I also am encouraging my other granddaughter to sign up for your newsletter since her girls are 1 & 2 and she can get a head start on what she will need later this year and in the future. Thanks for the great work, wish the home PC was around when I taught preschool back in the 70’s and 80’s. Well I guess they were but everyone did not have them LOL.
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Linda! I’m so glad you’re finding things to use with the children in your life! And I’m with you on wishing the blogosphere had been around a few years ago. It was available when I started teaching, but it took so long to find things and they were not nearly as accessible. Technology can be an amazing blessing!
Clarisse Silva says
I just love your ideas. They are beautiful.
I’m Portuguese and I’m the director of a preschool in East Timor (Southeast Asia). These are special children, as you may know, since this is a developing country which became independent only 12 years ago. Therefore, I always have to adapt your activities to our reality here.
Thank you for inspiring me
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Clarisse! Thank you for educating me about East Timor. It sounds like you have a very special and challenging teaching situation there. I’m so glad you’re finding things here to help you out!
Ally says
I can’t see them on this page, but I also love your beginning sounds mats that go along with Reading the Alphabet from This Reading Mama.
Anna Geiger says
THANK you, Ally, I had forgotten to add those in! They’re here now.
Jasmin says
THANK YOU so much for all your great stuff. Thats just amazing. I’m preparing now all the time because I just finished university and I hope I can start teaching in september! 🙂 Unfortunately I can’t use your english/alphabetic things because I live in Austria but I try to create some things on my own (you’re such an inspiration).
All the best for you & you’re familiy!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much, Jasmin! Congratulations on looking forward to that first year of teaching – so exciting! I’m sharing a free ebook next week designed for teachers of all types, but I think first year teachers will benefit the most. Thanks so much for reading!
elyse says
What an AMAZING list of resources! Thank you so much for sharing these 😀
I work in the Learning Support section of a reception-yr 12 school in Australia. I’m always looking for new activities to use with my students who need that little bit of extra practice in all subject areas. I was very excited to find your site. Looking forward to using the resources you’ve generously shared here! Thanks again 🙂
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Elyse! I’m so glad you found my site. I hope you keep following along 🙂
Charlotte says
Hi! I would like to ask where I can buy the hallow font that u used in this printable
Thank you very much. Great website!
Charlotte says
Hollow font. Sorry
Anna Geiger says
Which printable are you talking about, Charlotte?
Charlotte says
Beginning sounds coloring pages. Thanks.
Anna Geiger says
I used both Primer Print and Print Bold. You can find them both free online. Then I use chose “outline” under Font selections.
Samantha says
My son is only 16 months old, but I have been stressing over if he’s learning things at his “school” etc…I decided to hunt down some simple letters/color pages to work with him at home. I can not tell you how excited I was to find your site! THANK YOU for making it not only available, but easy to navigate as well!! I’ve already shared your site with a few friends and family members!
Anna Geiger says
Hi Samantha! It sounds like your 16 month old already knows quite a bit! Our fourth is 2 1/2 and I have finally started working on letters a little more with him. I had more time with our oldest, and I got to it sooner with her. 😉 I’m sure your little guy is doing great. 🙂 I’m go glad you find my site and can find things to use! It’s been fun for me and helps me do more with my own kids, too. Thanks so much for passing it along!
Christa says
Thank you for making all these printables available! We are just starting homeschool preschool, you have so many great resources.
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you’re finding things you can use here, Christa!
Qlt812 says
Your site is a life saver :-)! My grandson is 2 1/2 years old and very smart…
Anna Geiger says
I’m glad you’re finding resources here to help him learn!
Beth says
I just came across your site today…I instantly fell in love. I’ve been looking for quite some time some material other than your basic letter cards to start teaching my almost 2 yr old son the alphabet among other things. Your site is so wonderful and full of information. Thank you for doing this!
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Beth! So nice to have you here 🙂
Charlett Steverson says
This is by far the most resourceful site I’ve seen. I have a 4 year old daughter who is learning how to read and she love your books. I also have daycare and my preschooler enjoy the books as well. Thank you for taking out you precious time to create this site, it is very detailed and thought out.
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad to hear you have little ones who can use books! Thanks so much for commenting, Charlett!
Anna Geiger says
I meant, “little ones who can use *my* books” 🙂
Tracy Schumacher says
Thank you so much for all of your resources! I am currently a pre-k teacher and preparing to graduate with my BA in elementary ed. It can be so difficult to find GOOD teacher tools for the younger age group. With this in mind I was pleasantly surprised when I stumbled upon your page!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much, Tracy!
prasanthi says
I came across your blog while searching for ways to teach my 3 year old and i fell in love lol.I havent looked at the entire content but i bookmarked and would be visiting frequently for ideas to teach my son at home.
Thank you for the effort in putting all these wonderful ideas at one place and they are very valuable for me.
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad to hear that you are finding things to use here!
Patricia says
Thank you so much for these printables. I had seen the milk cap letters and had started my collection but assumed I would need to create my own cards. I noticed you do not have cards for i and u are they coming soon? 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Hi Patricia! I do plan to make milk cap letter sheets for all the short vowels. They are not on my immediate to do list, but hopefully within the next couple of months!

Thank you thank you. I am a teacher and a mother to three in Australia, and I love all the hard work and effort you have put into your resources.
Thank you.
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Renee! Thanks so much for your kind comment.
jshock says
Lots of great activities! Thanks. I can’t wait to share with others.
Anna Geiger says
Thank you SO much for sharing my site!
Janet says
Hi! I Just want to thank you for all your free printables , awesome ideas and useful information. Your site is truly a great teaching resource all at one spot!! I started using your printables and ideas to help my 4 year old in her writing and she enjoyed them :)) I know I’ll be coming back to your blog again and again….and I will definitely spread the word. May God continue to bless you and your work.
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much, Janet, for your kind comment and for spreading the word about my site. 🙂 I’m so thankful for readers like you!
Eve says
Would you be able to keep me updated when you get the number tracing worksheet up. Thank you very much! Love your site also!!!
Anna Geiger says
The number pages are up on the blog, today, Eve – enjoy! https://www.themeasuredmom.com/free-handwriting-pages-writing-numbers-3-levels/
Theresa says
Hi Anna, Thanks for some great resources which I have found useful for my students with Special Needs. They are colourful and visually appealing to students who need visual & sensory stimulation. Easy to use for busy teachers. Thank You 🙂
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Theresa!
Janelle says
The alphabet books are beautiful. However I believe that both upper and lowercase letters should be used
Anna Geiger says
I understand, Janelle. However, I chose to use just uppercase because I created these for my toddler and wanted to keep things simple. I will be teaching him his lowercase letters later when he is ready. It’s easy for him to “read” the book himself when he has the large uppercase letter to identify rather than both, which could confuse him.
Jennifer says
Thank you so much! I have 12 DRA Level A and AA’s this year in my first grade class and was in great need of easy books. Your books will go to good use!!!
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad to hear that, Jennifer! I remember how hard these easy readers were to find at an affordable price when I was a classroom teacher. If you have it in your budget and are not already a member, I recommend looking into Reading A-Z. I think it’s $100 for a year’s membership, and they have a ton of AWESOME printable books for all levels. I actually got a membership just to use with my kids at home.
Kenette Robertson says
Thank you so much for your fun resources. I teach in a Christian school & love having some fun and new resources to use. I get more excited than the class about having something new to laminate and take in to school!
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Kenette! So glad you’re finding things here to share with your students. 🙂
Tresa says
My daughter reads through our books so fast at home and she memorizes them by the picture. I’ve been searching for cute printable readers to give her something new without going broke. Thank you Thank you Thank you soo much!!!!!

I just want to thank you for creating this page, before this page I was constantly looking for things on the internet that my children could use at home for learning purposes or I was always going to the store by products, but this site makes it easy for me and my daughter loves her little books, my sons just love having books that they can color and I have to read at night. I love seeing my children faces light up when they are learning and having fun, it’s makes me happier. I just want to thank you again, because this has made a lot of things easier for especially since I am always looking for learning tools.
Anna Geiger says
Thank you for your kind note, Kikora! I love hearing about all the learning activities you’re doing at home with your kids! I hope you keep finding things you can use here.

Nerida Gibson says
Hi Anna,
I would like to take the chance to say a big thank you for sharing your wonderful resources. I am still a newby teacher, having only taught for 2 years – both of those in First Grade, and next year I will be making the move down to Prep (=Kindergarten). I am so happy I came across your site and will definitely be adding a selection of your resources to toolkit for next year. I especially love that all of your resources have been tried and tested by kids of the same age – it definitely gives a great insight to what motivates and engages little learners 🙂
Thank you so much!
Nerida 🙂

You’re very welcome, Nerida – I’m so glad you’re finding things here to help your teaching! It’s such an exciting profession because there’s always more to learn. Enjoy those little ones!

Denise K says
I stumbled onto your site and it is the answer to my prayers. I have a son in Kindergarten that has A LOT of energy so I know homework is a must. Almost two years ago, I was involved in an auto accident which resulted in a TBI (traumatic brain injury). What I knew before that accident is gone, so I am starting over again. I felt lost, I was not going to be able to provide the help my son needed. But NOT now! Your site will not only help my son but it will help me as well. Thank you for the hard work you have done. I love it all.
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Denise,
What challenges you’ve been through! I’m so glad you’re finding things here to help both you and your son. Blessings to you both!
Tiffany says
THANK YOU! I am a kindergarten teacher and a mommy of two boys and our newest addition is our daughter 🙂 My oldest is 6 and in first grade….we have been practicing spelling words and it is always a fight (neither one of us wants to drill and practice after a long day at school!). So thank you for the awesome ideas/materials for both my kindergarten classroom and our home!!! God bless you and thank you once again <3
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you can use things here, Tiffany! I know what you mean about kids not wanting to do drill work after a long day at school! I have to make sure my materials are interesting for that very reason. 🙂
Ann says
Thanks for all your hard work. This is beautiful site for kids and helping them learn. I teach preschool and these sheets are awesome! And you are giving us use of them for free. Thanks for sharing. It is hard to pick because they are cute and useful! Ann
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you’re finding things here you can use, Ann! Thanks so much for visiting. 🙂
Sophie says
Thank you so much for your site, in particular for the Word Study exercises. I’m teaching twin boys how to read/spell, and my regular techniques just weren’t working for one of them. I switched to your Word Study method and everything clicked for him. I’m wondering, though, if you’ll add more lists eventually? With O an U in particular, and then maybe more complex digraphs? It would be VERY appreciated.
(Please don’t include my email address in my comment).
Anna Geiger says
HI Sophie! No worries – your e-mail address only shows up for me, not for readers. I’m so glad word study is working for your boys! The reason I stopped doing word study on my blog is because my daughter outgrew it. Her spelling ability grew so rapidly that this was not a good use of her time. And since she attends school and this was an after school activity, I couldn’t justify it any longer. I would love to do this sort of thing with my son in the summer (he’s also an advanced speller and is currently in kindergarten), but I just don’t know for sure. Have you bought the Words Their Way book? It has so much helpful information. If you like apps, I highly recommend the Words Their way apps: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/best-spelling-apps-kids/. I’m sorry I can’t help you in this area right now. I think some day I might get to it, but it will probably be too late for you!
Sophie says
Thanks for your reply, Anna. I’ll be sure to check back, as I’m not actually a parent, I’m a teacher and even if the materials come too late for these particular students I’m sure they would help future ones! I’ll check out those apps in the meantime. Thank you!
Vanessa says
I love your website….. thank you so much for all of the great ideas and printables!
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Vanessa!
Katie says
I thought I down loaded all the short vowel mini readers…. but I ended up only downloading the short a vowel. They were based on word families like at, ap etc. I can’t find them anymore. Is there any way I could get the rest. It is helping a discouraged reader become more confindent.
thanks, Love your website… Appreciate all you share with us…. Katie
Anna Geiger says
Hi Katie! I’m so glad these books are helpful for you! You can get all the sets here: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/free-phonics-books/

Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you found me, Katrina! I hope you find lots of things you enjoy using in your classroom.
Amy Peterson says
This site is amazing! A colleague of mine shared it with me and I couldn’t be more pleased. I can’t thank you enough for sharing all of these absolutely wonderful ideas! It is nice to have these great, functional, and ready-to-use ideas right at my fingertips. The ideas that I have used thus far with kiddos have been a BIG hit!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much for your encouraging comment, Amy. 🙂 I’m thrilled that your students are enjoying the activities!
Lanre says

Caroline says
The beginning blends cards are great! Do you have cards for ending blends (ck/sh..)?
Anna Geiger says
Not yet, Caroline! Maybe a future project, but I have no immediate plans for those.
Anna Geiger says
You can find some digraph cards at This Reading Mama! http://thisreadingmama.com/beginning-and-ending-digraph-clip-cards/
Sneha says
Hello,
I am a pre-k teacher, working for age group 3 to 5.
I loved your website. Its cool. There’s a lot under one roof. I don’t remember seeing opposite match. Could you forward one to me.
Thanks
Sneha
Anna Geiger says
Hi, Sneha!
I don’t have an opposite match game, but here is a free one on another site: http://kidsactivitiesblog.com/51698/free-kids-printables-2
Sneha Samant says
Hello,
Thanks for the opposite match. I was also wondering if you could post something for 5 senses like
http://www.nuttinbutpreschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/5-Senses-Sorting-Pictures.jpg
or any thing of other kind.
Florencia says
Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication that helps people, like me, who are not as creative. I absolutely love the Kindergarten checklist. I wish you had a first grade checklist to inform the parents of what areas they need to work on with their child.
Thank you,
Florencia
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Florencia!
That’s an interesting idea… a first grade readiness checklist. I’ll have to think about that one! It’s challenging to write as kids are at SO many different stages of development when they come to first grade. I remember having a first grader who didn’t know all her letters and two students who were reading at a 5th grade level… all in the same class. Obviously the norm is somewhere in the middle. 🙂 I’ll think on it!
Rachel says
Thank you so much! I am a first year teacher working in a K-2 resource room and your site has been so helpful. I just wish I would have found you sooner.
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you’re finding things you can use here, Rachel! It’s too bad it took you a little while to find me, but hopefully it will be a greater help for the next school year. 🙂
Trevor Munroe says
Being short of educational supplies in Livingstone, I spend many hours finding resources for my staff. Today I struck gold. The first staff meeting will be about your site and the excellent ideas it has for a variety of grades. On top of that they are fun! I loved looking through the various activities. Many thanks. I am a Measured Mom lover after this morning’s browse.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Trevor
Anna Geiger says
Thanks so much for your kind words, Trevor! It’s always wonderful to hear about people using my site around the world. And thank you very much for sharing my site with your staff!
uyc says
Thank you for doing all the work and saving me so much time. First Grade teacher in AL. Praise God!
Anna Geiger says
Praise him, indeed – I’m so thankful that he’s given me this creative outlet that can benefit others as well. It’s a true blessing!
Elaine says
WOW…. I run a family daycare and i’m always searching for new and fun ideas to teach the kid’s new things. This site is awesome, I love! Thank you so much 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Thank you, Elaine! I really appreciate the kind words. 🙂
Salma pandit says
Hi Anna ,
I have no words for you to say THANK YOU, because I am using your books
In my Daycare and kids and parents are very happy.
God bless you.

Charmaine says
Dear Anna,
Your site is the best! I love your resources very very much! My kids love your Colour Me Emergent Reader series 🙂 Will you be having more of that coming up? Juz a BIG shout of THANKS to u here!
Anna Geiger says
Hi, Charmaine!
I write my Color Me Readers to go along with my early childhood book lists, which take a long time to put together. However, I’m getting close to being done with my Farm book list, (next week maybe?) and a new set of books will be coming out with that.
Jennifer says
I am trying to assist a dear friend of mine who is 8 years old and recently started to really dislike school. I have found she has trouble with vowel sounds, which is making spelling and reading difficult for her. Sadly, her school is just pushing her through and not helping where help is needed. I found your site and I am thrilled that i can walk her back through the basics this summer and help her to understand and learn.
I love that I am able to purchase the phonics “set” from you so I can easily create a binder. Your site is more helpful then many others I have come across. Thanks so MUCH!
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Jennifer! I’m so glad you’re finding things here to help your little friend. Hopefully with a lot of playful activities this summer she’ll be ready for school in the fall. I’d also like to recommend This Reading Mama’s short vowel activity pack. It is AWESOME – I’ve used a lot of the activities when teaching my kids to read. You can get a lot of the parts for free, or get the bundle pack for a very affordable price: http://bit.ly/1Hm3WjE
Christine Holliday says
You are just amazing! Thank you so much for not only making these printable games, but you just give them to us! From a teacher who is completely strapped for cash at the moment due to all of the end of the year expenses, THANK YOU!!!
Anna Geiger says
You’re so welcome, Christine! I remember how many hundreds (gulp, thousands!) of my own money I spent as a teacher. I’m so glad I get to do what I love and save teachers some time and cash at the same time. 🙂
Ana says
Hi Anna,
I wanted to thank you so much for all your free printables. My daughter looks forward to doing her alphabet activities everyday. However, today when I clicked on the free printables tab, I wasn’t able to see anything except for the comments. Is there something I can do to access the free printables?
Thank you,
Ana
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Ana! That’s so bizarre. Right now I am seeing all the printables. What browser are you using? Can you try a different one? I see everything in Chrome.
Lori says
Anna,
Just wanted to say a GIGANTIC THANK YOU for all your freebies! I am a 2nd year kindergarten teacher (after 2 years teaching 5th grade math and being an educational aide for the 11 years prior to that!). My kindergarteners come to my class at very different levels. Some have been to preschool, but sadly for most, I am their first exposure to the alphabet, numbers, writing, etc. You can’t imagine how much I appreciate your willingness to share your talents with others! God Bless You!
Lori
Anna Geiger says
You’re very welcome, Lori, and I’m so glad my materials are helpful for your kindergartners! I really appreciate your kind note. 🙂
Lindsey Toledo says
Hi Anna!
Thank you so much for a wonderful completion of printables!!! I use your sight almost every day for part of my son’s homeschool lessons! I use pursing this post again today and noticed on the first image of the post (the collage of images for the post), on the top left corner there is a photo of what appears to be a Syllable Counting Clip Card activity. I can’t seem to find that activity anywhere on your website. Do you still have it or access to it? Would you mind sending me a link for it or the file itself?
Thank you again so much for sharing all of your great work and the great work of others!
Blessing!
Lindsey
Anna Geiger says
Oops! I guess I forgot to link to those. Usually you can find what you’re looking for using the search bar (top right). Here’s the link: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/fun-syllable-count-activity/
Lindsey Toledo says
Thank you so much! I think I tried searching for it but couldn’t find it. Perhaps I did’t search in the right area. 😉 We are working on syllables in our next few lessons and we’re going on a road trip and I knew these would be prefect for the car. Thank you again for all you contribute to home and preschool education!
Monique Breeden says
HI Anna,
My 22 month old isn’t speaking yet, she only grunts & points at EVERYTHING she sees. I’m so happy that I found your website! it is so beautiful & full of great learning tools. I have downloaded your ABC free printable that I will use with her. I also bought a few rhyming books that she loves. Thanks for devoting your life to making other moms have a place & a voice!
Keep up the great work! 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Monique! I’m so glad you’ve found me. 🙂 Our oldest was a grunter too, and I thought I’d go crazy! She didn’t start talking until she was 2 1/2 — but you’d never guess it now, as she speaks and reads beautifully (she’s going into 3rd grade). As our oldest she received the most reading to and personal attention 🙂 and it certainly helped her develop a passion for books. That’s so wonderful that you’re doing so much with your toddler. Enjoy!
Brandy @ Our Thrifty Home says
What a wonderfully compiled list of resources here! Perfect for those of us who create our own curriculum.
Fabulous! Thank You
I will be Pinning this for reference.

You’re very welcome, Brandy, and thanks for the pin!

Tanzeela Shaikh says
hi Anna
I am a new kindergarten teacher. KG2. I need your help in new teaching strategies that I an implement in teaching my children. any website links, or blogs or articles are welcome, from where I can read through,
Also could you help me with ways of teaching concepts in Maths, Science and English?
Thank you so much dear… and happy to have found your wonderful website to help me further improve my career as a teacher.
Keep it up…
Anna Geiger says
Hi Tanzeela,
I’d like to help you, but I would need more specific questions. Are there resources you’d like for a certain concept?
Tanzeela Shaikh says
As for now, please tell me new teaching strategies, which is actually my holiday homework (finding new teaching strategies), before school reopens in September.
Anna Geiger says
I’m sorry, but I have five children and can’t do your homework for you. If you have specific questions about what you find on my site, I’d be happy to help!
Courtney says
Hi Anna!
I’m a speech-language pathology graduate student and it’s always a struggle to afford new materials and think of fun ideas for my younger clients. Thank you so much! This is a great resource and I will continue to come back for more! Your materials are so easy to adapt to speech and language therapy. The coloring pages by letter can be used to teach sounds (like those tricky “r” and “s” sounds). There are rhyming and matching activities. Even the math activities, like the bugs in a jar, can be used as fun reinforcement while working on language goals. Thanks again!
Proverbs 11:24-25
One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.
Anna Geiger says
I’m thrilled to hear that my materials can help children with speech difficulties, Courtney! Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment. It really brightened my day. 🙂
Jenn says
What an amazing site! I have taught little people for roughly 18 years now, and I am always looking for new and fresh ideas to use in my class. I JUST LOVE your teaching aids. And your generosity to share so freely is wonderful!
Thanks for all the hard work you do to make our lives easier!
Allison says
I love the printables! I help my boyfriend’s daughter alot with her education. She come along way. I use your stuff with her. I love the ice cream dot counting match! She was struggling with dot counting it has helped her alot. Its been really helpful! Thank you for sharing your ideas!
Anna Geiger says
You are so very welcome, Allison! I’m so happy that my materials are helpful and hope you keep finding more you an use!
Allison says
So far so good! I use them with my special education class -although I am a para- I try helping the teachers out too on any spare time. I help friends with homeschooling as well. I’ve sent a few to your site over the pass year. Wonderful for you to share 🙂
Rachael says
Wonderful resources! I will definitely be back and looking more into everything once I start lesson planning for my boys in a couple of weeks!
Anna Geiger says
Thanks so much for looking around, Rachael! I hope you find lots of things you can use. 🙂
Coley says
I am pretty new to teaching first grade and I have found your materials to be so refreshing!!! I taught 4th and 5th grade for quite a while, so coming down to 1st was a big change. Once I found your website I felt much better about teaching phonics. Thank you so much for sharing all your hard work. The word family mats and word family “house” wheels are my favorite so far.
Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you’re finding things you can use here to help your teaching! I taught grades 3-5 before moving down to first and second grade, so I know how steep that learning curve is! 🙂
M Ahlers says
I can not thank you enough for sharing all your hard work. This is going to make my classroom so much more productive during independent work time.
Thank you Thank you
Anna Geiger says
Hurray – so glad these will be helpful for your students!
Teresa says
I am loving the little books! I am going to print them and add them to my bin for Daily 5 Read to Self time for my Grade 1 and 2 class. I was wondering if you would consider making emergent readers for “is” and “it” that aren’t specifically US focused? I am in Canada and would love to have a complete set but hesitate to add books about the US presidents and symbols to my classroom library.
Anna Geiger says
Hi Teresa! I think if I were starting over I would have made the books applicable to all countries, but when I was originally making them they hadn’t caught on yet. I think that making alternate sets that work for all countries is a great idea, but unfortunately not something I can put on my schedule right now. Too many irons in the fire – I’m sorry!
letrice Foxx says
Thank you so much for this site. It has already been a blessing for my busy preschool. We are a academic preschool. Your worksheets are great, looking forward to using them.
Blessings to you and your staff.

ROBIN says
I seen in he Banner the game “Would You Rather”. I did not see it listed on your website. Was hoping to play it with the grandchildren this week when they come to visit. Could you please e-mail me the questions? Otherwise where do I go to get them?
Great material and teaching guides. May try some of it with my handicapped nephew.
Thanks
Robin
Anna Geiger says

I just found your website and I am so excited. I can’t wait to see the learning my 3 year old will do with your products. I have already passed your website along to a few other pre-k mommy friends. Thank you for sharing!
Anna Geiger says

Jill says
I can’t tell you how impressed I am that you are so willing to share your work with us. I know that it has to take a lot of time, energy and money to put it all together, yet you share it willingly. I don’t know about anyone else, but being a teacher with limits in all three of these areas, I am truly grateful! Thank you and God bless!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much for your kind comment, Jill! I am so thankful that I can earn a living from home by helping teachers and homeschoolers. I can’t say how much I love doing this, and it’s a joy to save teachers time, energy, and money – I taught full time for a number of years and remember it well!

I just wanted to let you know what a blessing your site has been for me. This is my first year teaching kindergarten (after 7+ years in other grades) and I am a bit overwhelmed. Your site has so many activities that are aligned to our state standards, and kid friendly. I am sincerely grateful that you have chosen to share your resources with the public! You have an amazing gift!!
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Rebecca! I’m so glad you’re finding things here that you can use. I can imagine that switching down to kindergarten is quite a challenge! I taught grades 3-5 for a few years before moving down to first, and it was quite the learning curve. I LOVE what I get to do here and am so thankful it can help teachers like you!

Melissa Bates says
My students have really liked the time and place value games you have with the do a dot markers. Do you have other games that are similar like for different topics but the same game concept? I like to use the same game with different concepts because then I don’t have to reteach how to play the games over and over. Thanks!
Anna Geiger says
Everything I have of this type of game can be found in the Print and Play series: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/free-printable-games-for-k-2/ Not all of my games there have this same pattern, but many do.
Allie Selden says
Hi there! I teach 2nd grade and was thrilled to come across your website. I have been trying to download the Beginning Blends Clip Cards but every time I save it to be printed out it says “Failed – No File”. I am using Google Chrome. Does this file still exist?
Thanks!
Anna Geiger says
Hi Allie,
Yes, all the files are still there. Did you try the tips here? https://www.themeasuredmom.com/how-to-download-free-files/
The third suggestion may be your best bet. Let me know if it works for you!
Ginger B says
I love these cards!! When I go to print them it says there is a pdf error. Are these still available?
Anna Geiger says
I’m not sure which printable you’re talking about, Ginger, but you can usually find a solution on this page: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/how-to-download-free-files/
Let me know if you try everything and it still doesn’t work!

Sherley Yngfors says
Dear Anna,
Thank you SO…. MUCH for generously sharing your resources!! I am a mom of a preschooler living in Sweden who desires to homeschool her child as long as I am legally allowed (homeschooling is illegal here). And my husband and I decided that our little girl should be proficient in English as well as Swedish. But it is not easy to find homeschool material here, let alone ones in English. I am a homeschooling mom on a tight budget, so I am very grateful to you for sharing!! Our girl is very much interested in reading and writing so your alphabet resources are perfect!
Blessing to you,
Sherley Yngfors
Anna Geiger says
Thank you so much for your comment, Sherley – and I’m so thankful you’re finding things here to help teach your daughter!

You’re very welcome, Mindy! Thanks so much for visiting! 🙂
Pam says
Do you have any worksheets for tracing numbers 10-20?
Thank you!
Anna Geiger says
No, I don’t – I actually created the handwriting pages for practice forming the numbers and not for actually recognizing them, which is why I just made pages for the numerals 0-9. I don’t have plans to make them for 10-20.
Bree says
Your website is amazing! As a first year out teacher I have very little resources of my own so I am so grateful that I am able to supplement what I have with your resources! Thank you 🙂

Ingrid says
I must ask ,do you ever sleep ??? And thank you so much for your generousity of heart in sharing all these resources with us. Above all else I’m sure the biggest change we could make for our children and indeed the world ,is to encourage them to look and see what they can do for others and the internal buzz that comes with knowing that you’ve done something worth more than the money given the benefit received. You must be an awesome to know 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Ha! I sleep, but I never feel rested enough. 🙂 These days I’m not getting in too much blogging time because I go to bed soon after our newborn – or else I’m a cranky mom the next day! I love, love, love creating and sharing here, Ingrid. It inspires me to do more learning activities with my own kids and helps me use a different part of my brain than the part that does laundry, meals, and diapers. 🙂 Thanks so much for reading!
Wilna says
Wow! I will be forever grateful for this website. We recently moved to Australia and English is not my kids first language. Thank you so much for this! It helps a lot! thanks!!

Thank you so much for such amazing products and information. Your materials make learning fun and are such a blessing to our family. This is my first year homeschooling and I’m completely overwhelmed. My children love your ideas and you’ve made learning fun for them (and me). That is a gift in itself. I have no idea how do you find the time to take care of your family, blog, and create awesome resources but I am forever grateful that you share your materials for free. Thank you so much! Many blessing to you!!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you for your comment, Amy – I really appreciate it! One of my goals is relieve some stress for homeschoolers and teachers. I know it’s easy to get overwhelmed with all the ideas out there! I really love doing this, but transitioning from being a SAHM to a WAHM has been an interesting challenge. I’m always working at balance – just like all moms, I think!
Courtney Wood says

Anjana says
Hi Anna,
Your website is awesome. Lots of printables, activities and brilliant ideas to teach. I have 2 questions
1. My kid is 5 years old and schooled in India. We are moving to California in another 2-3 months. How do I know whether she is ready for schooling in USA?
2. I can see lot of teaching stuff in your website, reading mama.com and lots more in pinterest. I am totally confused where to start. Any ideas here?
Thanks if you can take some time out to reply me here amongst your busy mama schedule/
Anna Geiger says
Hello, Anjana!
This post will tell you what your child needs to know for kindergarten, if that’s where you’re planning to start.
https://www.themeasuredmom.com/ready-for-kindergarten-checklist/
After that, it depends on what he/she knows as to where to go next. Check out this post to see if he/she is ready to read: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/reading-skills-kids-need-theyre-ready-sound-out-words/

Thank you for the very helpful list you have compiled! The sight words listed in categories will be immensely convenient and I’m looking forward to using the dot pages. I am working bit by bit every day with my 3yr old sister (I am 17) to teach her the alphabet and 2-3 letter sight words. Finding free resources online has been a blessing! (Thank you Pinterest and homeschooling moms!)

Anna Geiger says
I’m so glad you can use them, Jocelyn!
Laura says
Hello Anna;
I apologize for not being clear, you don´t have to print anything for me or mail me anything and I admire your priority are your children
I meant that perhaps in YOUR FREEBIE SECTION, YOU CAN POST SOME BOOKS FOR SMALL READERS. Then I can print them MYSELF. What happens is that the ones you have cost money and you mention free books but probably I am clicking the wrong way and CAN´T GET THEM.
that is the reason of my suggestion. I am sorry for the misunderstanding.
Thank you,
Laura
Anna Geiger says
Gotcha, Laura! I just answered your first comment. Let me know if you still have questions!

New Kinder teacher says
I have enjoyed being introduced to your wonderful site! I have been looking for beginning printing pages, and really like how they would trace inside the letter. I was just wondering on the lower case letter d, it seems as though the red dot on all other letters is placed where the letter begins, by the 1. However, on the d the red dot remains at the top and not where the 1 is to begin the letter. Hopefully I have made sense.
Can’t wait to continue learning about your site!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you for checking out my site! And thank you for that edit. I will file it away in my list of “free printables to edit” and probably get to it later this fall. I usually do those in a big batch when I am able to make some time. 🙂

Joey says
Hi Anna,
I recently bought almost every item that is offered in your shop. I’ve already started using some of it and my kids love it. My question…is there anything in the ‘free printables’ section that is NOT included in the shop? For example I was downloading the short vowel family mats from the free printable section until I realized that I’d already purchased them as a single download from the shop. Any advice? 🙂
Anna Geiger says
Hi Joey! I’m thinking you’re asking if there is anything in the free printables section that you have already purchased as a bundle. So you’re trying to save yourself some in the free printables section. If that’s what you’re asking, here’s my answer:
1- Don’t download any of the read ‘n stick mats. They are all in the shop, improved and bundled.
2- Don’t download the word family houses. They are much improved and bundled in the shop.
3- Do not download sets 1-26 of the sight word books. They are bundled for easy downloading in the shop.
4- Do not download any of of the simple sight word books. They are bundled (and added to) in the shop.
5- Do not download any of the phonics books. They are bundled for easy downloading in the shop.
6- Do not download the spelling mats or read and slide cards. They are bundled in the shop.
7- Do not download each of the A-Z letter books individually. They are in one download in the shop. Also do not download the simple A-Z photo books individually. They are in one download in the shop.
The point of many of these shop bundles is to save you a TON of time downloading, plus some of the files are updated and improved. So definitely don’t download again. 🙂
Some things in the shop that are completely NEW and not in the shop – LOTW curriculum, theme packs (which just various small freebies on this page), the writing workshop curriculum, A-Z photo cards, opposite packs, etc.
Joey says
Anna,
Thank you so very much for clarifying that. I was afraid that my question would seem to convey what you said, but in fact I’ve already purchased every item in the shop except for maybe 1 or 2. I’m in love with the materials you provide and so are my students.
Thank you again so very much and I look forward to any new additions. I also absolutely love the suggestions you offer on all of the pages such as story books to go along with themed packs or other printables. As a new teacher, it’s a tremendous help. Thank you again!
Joey
Kelsey says
I love the little phonics readers! Are you planning on creating some books focusing on ce and je?
Anna Geiger says
Hi Kelsey! No – I won’t be adding to the set.
Katie W. says
Thank you for your awesome resources. As a reading specialist, turned stay at home mom of 3 under 3, this is a gold mine. Thanks for creating such fun (and cute) activities!
Anna Geiger says
Thank you for the encouragement, Katie! And I hope you’re finding some time for rest as a mom of 3 under 3 – that’s a very busy time!! 🙂

I LOVE your site! This is ALL so valuable! 🙂 I am currently putting together a lesson plan for my girls, to get them into an active schedule for a couple days a week (almost 3 and 1) And I LOVE that you have so many fun and free resources for us to get started!
Question though- where can I find the number flip book that I see in a photo? It have a BIG 2 and two cars. I think my daughter would love that!
Thank you so much!
Anna Geiger says
Is this the one you’re looking for, Stephanie? https://www.themeasuredmom.com/free-numbers-book-kids-ages-2-5/

hi, I was asking for some free worksheets for phonics. I did receive them but it’s showing a 404, so I can’t get them. Can someone help me? Thanks
Anna Geiger says
Hi Betsy,
I have many, many phonics printables on my site, so you’ll have to give me the URL of the post where you’re having trouble so I can figure it out.
syed tawfiq ahmed says
Dear i need phonics Stories A to Z . kindly help me i need prints for children
Anna Geiger says
I don’t have phonics stories from A-Z, just the phonics books that you see on this page.
Stephanie Lapinski says
YES! That was exactly what i was looking for! Thank you soo much!
Pam says
Thank you so much for your free downloads! I just printed out the Alphabet worksheets 🙂

Thanks so much!

Kay Day says
I am making some alphabet letters for my 2-year-old grandson. Can you give me an estimate of how many of each letter I need to make for him and how many of each number? He signs with his parents and is becoming more verbal every day. Thank you for all the work you have accomplished to help parents learn to work with their children appropriately. My son taught himself to read at age 4 and my daughter taught herself to read at age 3. I had been reading to them from 6 months in age. Great pleasure for me and for them! Again, thank you for making so much information available. I will be gifting my grandson’s parents with much of your material.
Anna Geiger says
That’s a great question, Kay, but not one I can easily answer. I would really need to meet your grandson to see what he’s doing, what he enjoys, and what he’s ready to work on next. If you are eager to print and bind material for his parents to use, I would start with the alphabet books. They are a great fit for 2 year olds, and they are something he can use again and again. Here are the links to my two sets:
https://www.themeasuredmom.com/simple-alphabet-books-babies-toddlers-preschoolers/
https://www.themeasuredmom.com/free-letter-books/
Jacquelyn Torres says
Thank you so much. This is wonderful. This year will be my fist time teaching first grade. I Know this will be very helpful for my students.
Kay Day says
Anna, In regard to my question about the frequency of letters used in the English language, I found a partial answer on a cryptogram puzzle page in a PennyPress Favorite Variety Puzzle book: “One way to break the code is to look for repeated letters. E, T, A, O, N, R, and I are the most often used letters. A single letter is usually A or I; OF, IS, and IT are common 2-letter words; try THE or AND for a 3-letter group.” Therefore, in my lower-case alphabet for my grandson, I will make 3-each of E, T, A, O, N, R, I, F, H, S, and D. I’ll let you know how they work out. My husband and I will be visiting the family for Christmas. I’ll let you know how the letters work out. By the way, I forgot to tell you that the parents told us Lukas loves the letters! Thank you so much for sharing how to make them.
Anna G says
Thank you for the follow-up, Kay!
Kelly says
Wow! You are so generous, i can’t believe all of these amazing resources are free! Thank you so much, my Kindergarten class love using so many of your activities during literacy groups!!

I see 5 senses clip cards on Pintrest from your website but I can’t access them. Are they still available?
Anna G says
Hello! The 5 senses clip cards are not a freebie; they are part of my All About Me preschool theme pack.
Jennifer says
I love this website and all of the resources available. Howevery, I’m unable to print any of the printables. I enter my name and email and click “Yes I want it.” I’ve signed up and put in my email but nothing happens. =( Is there something else I need to do? I really want to use these resources.
Anna G says
You don’t need to sign up to anything to download the freebies, unless they are subscriber freebies. Just go to the blog post and click on the big green button that says “To get your free printable, click HERE.” After you click on it, the file will download to your computer, and you can print.
Is there a specific freebie you’re not able to download?

Kelli says
Hello!
I found your website about a week ago. I was looking for the printable list of stories to read aloud for the alphabet. I am not sure what it is called or where I can find it. I subscribed to the newsletter as it said in order to access the subscriber library but am unable to find that either. Please let me know if I need to do something else. 🙂 I haven’t received any emails yet. How long does it usually take receive a first email after subscribing? Thanks for all the work you have put into this! Such amazing resources for classroom and at home!
Kelli says
At the top of the page I am looking for it says “Our Favorite Books for Letter of the Week”. Thanks so much for your help. Sorry for posting twice! I couldn’t go back and edit the first comment.
Anna G says
I think we resolved this through an email you sent me, but let me know if we didn’t!
Stephanie says
Hello Anna,
I just wanted to say that I love your printable resources! I just finished teaching summer school to a group of Kindergartners. I used a bunch of your resources: ABC Letter Tracing cards- the kids loved the pictures, the mini ABC flipbook was very helpful for reinforcing letter sounds during small group work, a rhyming worksheet that I used as an assessment at the end to see their growth with rhyming words that we reviewed with your rhyming path games. We also used the beginning letter path games, the cute fruits and vegetables books and the 3D sorting mats with pictures of real objects. Your resources made it easy to plan productive activities that the students enjoyed using. Thank you for creating these resources and for sharing them as free resources. Your site will be a first stop for me when I need a new idea for teaching primary grade students.
Anna G says
This is so wonderful to hear, Stephanie! Thanks for telling me how you’re using my website!

I used a lot of your resources when I taught PS/K-4 a few years ago, and I’m so glad I found your one-player multiplication bingo game to do with my 3rd graders. My students really love using that game to practice their facts! We will soon be starting division. Would you happen to have the same game for division?
Thanks!
Anna G says
No, but I will put that on my suggestions list!
Linda Karolski says

Beatriz says
Hello ! Congratulations on your work it is really amazing and helpful. I really love it Never seen such qualitiy and thougtfulness in everything that you do.
And I am not here just for your freebies which is amazing too. I do not mind pay for high quality work like you, not at all. But I do have a complaint.
Your website IS SO COMPLICATED TO NAVIGATE ! PLUS IS ANNOYING TO HAVE TO WRITE my email and name every time ! and then it directs me to something I do not want…
I know you have to take care of your owkr and not let just anyone get it, but I think the difficulty of navigate your page is too much. Or maybe I am just ignorant? And I mean it in the best possible way. Thank you
Anna G says
I’m sorry you feel that way, Beatriz. I’ve actually worked very hard to make my website easy to navigate. For example, I’ve never seen another blog that has such an easy-to-use free printable page like this one.
Don’t you think that the few seconds it takes to add your email address is worth a free file?
Rebecca E says

Valerie L Suggs says
Hi- I use your web sight a lot homeschooling my daughter with autism. She is middle school age but still needs the pre-school kindergarten level. She really needs real photographs not cartoons. I have recently printed the book “I am a Firefighter” and the sorting mats to go with this. I do not see where to download or print the books, “I am a Police Officer” or “I am a mail carrier”
Other helpful books would be “I am a Doctor”
We are currently working on identifying community helpers and your printables are great for this. I love the real pictures!!! Thank you
Kate Dowling says
Hi Valerie!
This is Kate, Anna’s assistant. I’m so glad you like the firefighter book! It’s a free book from Anna’s Community Helper theme pack. The theme pack is FULL of real images, including 12 books like the firefighter book. If you’d like more information on the theme pack, it’s for sale here: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/product/community-helpers-theme-pack-for-pre-kk/
You’ll also love the sorting mats, where children sort photo images of tools, etc. onto the board for the correct community helper.

I am so very thankful for your willingness to help so many others. I work at an after school program and love working with the little ones. I try hard to make sure that homework is done but try to help those who need that little extra the learning they need. I have some kindergartens that struggle with Alphabet and sight words. Can you provide me with suggestions to help those that are behind because they can not focus? I thank you again and have a blessed day.
Kate Dowling says
Hi Lori!
This is Kate, Anna’s assistant. Here is a video Anna made on teaching sight words. You will also find some great links under the video. I hope it’s helpful: https://www.themeasuredmom.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-sight-words/
