Free Sight Word “has” Worksheet for Kids
“Has” tells us that someone owns or holds something now: she has a kite, the cat has a toy. It is used with he, she, it and names.
Play Who has it?
Pass a small toy around a circle while music plays. When it stops, everyone points and says “Mia has it!” or “Teddy has it!”. Write has on a card and hold it up each time.
Helping your child learn “has”
Has looks like it should end with /s/, but the s buzzes like /z/. Say it slowly with your child and feel the buzz on your teeth. Then play a “who has it?” game: hide a coin in one hand and ask your child to guess. “Dad has it!” uses the word naturally.
Example sentences
- She has a blue bike.
- The cat has a toy.
- Who has my sock?
- He has two pets.
