The Fry list of 1000 words are “the most frequently used words for reading and writing” listed in rank order.
Kristy Cofer’s site offers the chance to test reading of the words, and for children to listen to the (first three hundred) words and have a go at spelling them.
A good assessment tool and a chance to revise these spellings too?
