Sight Words Practice — Answer Key
Part A: Multiple Choice
Circle the best answer for each question.
1. Which sight word best completes the sentence: 'She ___ the answer to the riddle.'?
A) knew
B) keep
C) kind
D) know
"Knew" is the past tense of know and tells that she had the answer in her mind — the silent k is a tricky spelling to memorize.
2. What does the sight word 'around' mean?
A) above something
B) in a circle or nearby
C) under something
D) very far away
"Around" describes motion going in a circle (like running around a track) or position close by (like friends standing around you) — both meanings show the word is about location.
3. Which sentence uses the sight word 'done' correctly?
A) She done a red dress today.
B) We done the park after school.
C) I am done with my homework.
D) He done very quickly to class.
"Done" means finished and follows the helper verb "am" — saying "I am done" shows the homework is complete, which is how the word works in English.
4. Which word is spelled correctly?
A) agen
B) agian
C) again
D) agane
The word "again" is spelled a-g-a-i-n — watch out for the "ai" vowel team in the middle, which makes a short "e" sound here.
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the correct answer on each line.
1. He wants to play that game again.
The word "again" means one more time, so it fits when someone enjoyed a game so much they want to play it over.
2. The bird flew high into the bright blue sky.
The word "high" means far up above the ground, which matches a bird rising up into the wide open sky.
3. We saw a funny movie at the theater last night.
"Saw" is the past tense of see, and the clue "last night" tells us the movie was watched already — so we need the past-tense verb.
4. Can you show me where the library is?
The word "show" means to let someone see by pointing or leading, which is how you help a person find a place they do not know.
5. I will give my best on the spelling test tomorrow.
"Give my best" is a common phrase meaning to put in full effort, and the word "give" is the verb that means offering something — here, your hard work.
