Word Match with Christmas

Can you read it and match it? This sheet asks a child to read each written word and pair it with the right Christmas things picture. Among words for a tree, a bauble and a stocking and others, the child reads the whole word and draws a line to what it names. Reading familiar words by sight and matching them to their pictures is core Kindergarten word-recognition, a foundation for reading sentences.

Word-recognition is foundational Kindergarten reading: the child reads a familiar word by sight and matches it to its picture, building the instant whole-word reading that fluency depends on. Doing it with Christmas things pictures keeps each word meaningful and the practice rewarding, exactly the kind of reading early readers are ready for.

Children who like reading and matching christmas things words build their sight vocabulary every time. When this feels easy, read the words in word match with classroom objects, or try word match with easter. You can also browse every word-matching worksheet or the whole kindergarten collection — each sheet prints cleanly or plays online for free, and every match adds to the words a child can read at a glance, steadily growing the sight vocabulary that makes reading sentences feel natural and, in time, unhurried.
