I really liked it

MomOF3Boys88

I looked everywhere for a simple app to learn sight words without distracting ads or locked features which would agitate him. This is easy to use if he doesn’t know a word he just taps it and it reads the word for him and writing it out helps him remember the spelling of the word he was having trouble with the first 100 sight words and he has already learned the first 80 worth the price (I had also purchased sight ninja but he was more excited about the game aspect and was just slicing the words)


App uses Fry’s sight words

ModerFanily

This is a perfect app to supplement lessons on Fry’s sight words. It has up to the 300th word on the Fry’s lists. Highly recommended!


simple, straightforward

Montessorians

I teach 1st grade, and this app covers the first 200 Fry words. It is no nonsense, without lots of gimmicks and crazy stuff. Each review activity helps the student to practice the word; I think some are better than others. This is something that kids can do independently for practice.


Good app

GemMama2Boys

Bright cheery colors. The words are spoken when tapped. The drawing of the letters is smooth and responsive. The whole app flows very nicely. Sprinkled throughout are fun games like a picture puzzle, hang man and tic-tac-toe.


Great learning app

Learn 300 basic sight words and have fun at the same time--what more could you ask for!


Excellent...One Suggestion

Cherelyn00

This app has been wonderful in teaching my preschooler the sight words. However, one feature that I would like to see is the ability to trace the sight words in addition to actually writing them freehand. Tracing for preschoolers is instrumental in being able to develop their writing skills and letter formation. Your consideration would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!


Would be awesome if it saved work

Pwrchrd

I really want to love this app! It has great potential and my daughter appears to enjoy it. However, it does not appear to save your work between sessions. This means the user must remember which of 300 words they have already done or redo previous words, which irritates my daughter. There is a setting for clearing work between sessions but it does not appear to change the behavior. I have contacted their customer support and they indicate this is designed functionality even though their app and app store description indicate it has a save feature. If I can't get this fixed I will ask for a refund.


A Little Disappointed

Hopeful for New Update

This app would be better if you were able to choose the exact words you want to use instead of the predetermined lists. Also, this app does not recognize handwriting so a child can write anything and move to the next word. There are apps that recognize and say the name of each letter written and then say the name of the word again. If these features were added I would give 5 stars.


Kids Learn Sight Words

My 6yr old son likes angry birds and world of goo like everyone else, but he also likes this and thinks of it like another game. You'd think he'd like it for the tic tac toe, puzzles, hangman, etc. but he seems to have the more fun playing with the star and the recording feature. I'm just glad to see him having a good experience with words.


We learn sight word 1-300

My teachers really like this app, but I find the lack of ability to have multiple students have profiles is a great weakness for using in schools.
