Sight Word “all” Worksheet – Trace, Write and Find
“All” means every one, with nothing left out: “all the cookies”, “all done!”. Children say it constantly, so it is a satisfying word to read.
What’s on the “all” worksheet
Read and trace “all”, write it alone, circle it among ball, tall, ill, ale and wall, then trace “All the ducks swim.”
Prints on A4 or US Letter (choose “Fit to page”).
How to teach “all”
All starts with the short /o/-like sound you hear in ball, not the /a/ of apple, which is why it belongs on the sight list. Write ball, tall and wall underneath and let your child spot the shared ending. Then cover the first letter of each and read what is left: all.
Sentences with “all”
- We ate all the grapes.
- All the ducks swim.
- Is that all?
- All my toys are in the box.
Game: All-gone tidy up
Scatter ten small toys on the floor. Set a sand timer and say “Put all the cars in the box!” When it is done, your child holds up the word card and shouts “all gone!” Change the category each round: all the red things, all the soft things.
Practise next
Try “at” and “ate” next: they share the same first letter, so it is a good moment to compare their sounds.
Questions about “all”
Why does all not sound like the a in apple?
Before two letter Ls, the letter a usually changes its sound, as in ball, call and fall. Teaching the -all family alongside the word helps it make sense.
Is all the same as always?
No. They start the same way, but always is a longer word about time. Point to the extra letters so your child sees the difference.
