Fry Instant Words

The Fry list of 600 words are the most frequently used words for reading and writing.  The first 25 Fry Words make up about a third of all printed material. The first 100 Fry Words make up about half of all written material. (Fry & Kress, 2006, p.51)

These 300 words make up approximately two-thirds of all written material; and an average student learns about 100 of these common sight words each year in first, second and third grade.

The words are listed in rank order.
