How to use this tool
The Dolch lists are still one of the most familiar reference points in early literacy classrooms. This tool makes the lists easier to scan, sort, and print without forcing you into a worksheet flow.
Use the list for checklists, flashcards, intervention planning, or family communication. If your team teaches the words in a different order, you can still use this as a clean reference view instead of a rigid pacing guide.
