Kite Adventures

Worksheet Description

This worksheet contains a short narrative titled “Kite Adventures,” which tells the story of a first-grade boy named Max and his cherished old kite, a gift from his grandpa. The story describes Max’s love for flying the kite and how one day, while flying it, he decides to give it to a friendly bird that seemed to admire the kite as much as he did. The story ends on a reflective note, with Max recognizing the joy that comes from sharing, as he contemplates getting a new kite in the future.

The worksheet is designed to help first-grade students learn and practice sight words—common words that are essential for reading fluency. Through the story of Max and his kite, sight words such as “an,” “as,” “every,” “fly,” “gives,” “has,” “him,” “old,” “round,” and “think” are highlighted, allowing students to recognize and memorize these words in a meaningful context. The inclusion of a word list at the end encourages further practice, reinforcing the sight words introduced in the story, which is a key step in developing reading skills at this stage of learning.
