✔ How to Solve This Worksheet:

The task says:
> Read each sentence. Trace the word. Then read the sentences again.

This means you should:
1. Read the full sentence.
2. Find the bolded word in the sentence (this is the vocabulary word you’re learning).
3. Trace over the dotted letters of that word underneath the sentence.
4. Re-read the whole sentence after tracing to reinforce learning.

There’s also a Word Bank on the right side with all the vocabulary words used in the sentences. You can use it to check spelling or if you get stuck.
