Fry List
The Fry List is a list of the most commonly used words in English, ranked in frequency order. The first 25 make up about a third of all printed material. The first 100 make up about half of all written material, and the first 300 make up about 65 percent of all written material. Is it any wonder that all students must learn to recognize these words instantly and to spell them correctly as well?
The first 100 words should be mastered in 1st grade. The second 100 words should be mastered by 2nd grade, etc.
Challenge yourself and learn as many words as you can.
Ask Mrs. Yadao for a Fry List.
The Fry List that you may receive has some words cut off in the first one hundred words column on the left-hand side. These are the missing words.
