Gopher Finding

This is a great app for kindergarten thru 3rd grade children. It includes 217 sight words (from Dolch Sight Word List) and 126 high frequency words that are important and useful for beginning readers. In this game your child has to help Gopher find sight words. Every time they get 20% correct, they will get the reward (i.e, a shirt or hat or pants or sunglasses or shoes) to dress up the gopher. Moreover, they can collect all the different dress-up collections as they go. **In this new version, the rewards from each game will also collect in the reward chest and they can dress up the gopher as they want for their own collection. This really encourages them to learn things and have fun at the same time.

This app also includes the progress report for parents which will show them how well the children learn and recognize the words. This game will help your child master identifying sight words and high frequency words for their early reading skills.

Did not work

I bought this app and the voice has never worked. I emailed them twice and they never responded. Rip off.


Helpful, but not much to it

This is a great app for recognizing / starting to read sight words. It is not really for up to 3rd grade, maybe k-1 grade. All you are doing is tapping the word they call out, so my child can cheat it by looking at the first letter if she doesn't know it. It would be nice if there was a harder level mixing sight words that begin with the same sounds. Also, she has fun dressing the gopher. You earn clothing very fast. (like every couple words you tap). If you earned them slower it would keep their interest longer. Overall, my six year old enjoys it a lot.


Not much to this, but not bad

This app seems a little high-priced for my liking but I couldn't find a lot of high frequency word apps. One way to really improve this app for me would be to make the words customizable. This way, the app could help my son learn the words at school he's learning and being tested on.
