Sure! Let’s solve this
Sight Word Practice worksheet step by step.
We are given 5 sentences with blanks, and we must choose the correct word from this list:
>
will, want, jump, like, with
---
Sentence 1:
“The boy can run and ________.”
- We’re looking for a verb that matches “run” — something physical the boy can do.
- “Jump” is a physical action, just like “run.”
-
✔ Correct word:
jump
> ✔️
Answer: jump
---
Sentence 2:
“The cat and dog ________ to play.”
- This sentence is about what the animals *feel* or *desire* — they have a preference or wish.
- “Like” fits perfectly here — “like to play” means they enjoy playing.
- “Want” could also work, but “like” is more natural in this context (especially since “want to play” sounds a bit more urgent or demanding, while “like to play” is habitual or enjoyable).
- However, let’s check the other sentences to make sure we don’t reuse words. Each word should be used only once.
Wait — actually,
both “like” and “want” are possible, but let’s see which one fits better in the *other* sentences.
Let’s hold onto this and look at sentence 4:
---
Sentence 4:
“I ________ to play with you.”
- This is clearly expressing a personal desire — “I want to play with you” is very natural.
- “I like to play with you” is also grammatically correct, but it expresses preference rather than immediate desire.
- Since this is a direct expression of intention,
“want” is the best fit.
> So, assign
“want” to sentence 4.
Then back to sentence 2:
“The cat and dog ________ to play.”
Now that “want” is taken, “like” is the only good choice left.
> ✔️
Answer: like
---
Sentence 3:
“Can you play ________ me?”
- This is asking if someone can join in an activity *together* with the speaker.
- The preposition “with” is used to show accompaniment.
-
✔ Correct word:
with
> ✔️
Answer: with
---
Sentence 5:
“________ you come play with me?”
- This is a question asking if someone is willing or able to do something.
- The word “will” is used to ask about future willingness or intention.
- “Will you come...?” is the standard way to ask this.
-
✔ Correct word:
will
> ✔️
Answer: will
---

- Sentence 1 →
jump
- Sentence 2 →
like
- Sentence 3 →
with
- Sentence 4 →
want
