- Reading and Literacy Skills - This site is for home-school parents and tutors but has lots of useful worksheets. The site says it's for third graders, but some of the topics are really for earlier grades. The worksheets are quick and easy to follow, perfect for homework assignments. Topics include using a title page, a table of contents, a glossary, an index, different parts of a book, a dictionary, and an encyclopedia; understanding what kind of information you can find in biographies, autobiographies, and atlases; word families (called 'common word endings' in the site index); parts of speech (nouns, verbs, and adjectives), parts of the sentence (subject and predicate); syllables; compound words, verb tenses; plural and possessive nouns; contractions; prefixes and suffixes; alphabetizing; and some basic writing process activities. Some of the worksheets are much better than others, so be selective.
