Sight Words Ninja

Huh

How is this suppose to help my child read?

You got me with the name, but I’m sorry I paid for this app for my grandson - it’s actually boring. Just calling it “Ninja” doesn’t make it a great game. Epic fail, in my opinion.

Great app!

This is a really great app and Fun to play.????

It doesn’t repeat any words from what I can tell so it is too many different words in one session. The child probably isn’t retaining anything. MANY of the words cannot fully be seen because they don’t fully come out from the sides into the middle area. So boring!! Nothing changes, there are no new backgrounds to unlock, no cool swords or ways to slice or different voices.. characters.. nothing! No kid wants to play this.. If my child is in pre school, i have to go into the settings and turn off all the first, second, and third grade words one at a time which is a pain. I wish you could just turn them off by grade level.

Doesn’t actually teach or quiz

I thought there would be more than one word at a time on the screen and the kid would have to choose the correct one matching the spoken word. Nope. The word floats around and all you have to do is slice it. My kids got bored and began arbitrarily slicing and not even waiting for the full word to come into view. It doesn’t provide any phonics instruction. Total waste of money

No sound

No sound

No sound!!

qweerrrtttttyyyyyuu

How is this going to help with sight words when you can’t hear the words to know what words to slice?!?

Sound is spotty

hhhhhhhhhsssssssss

Sound works about 1/4 percent of the tile

I thought the sound didn’t work

Ashley - from Tejas

The sound works fine. My iPad was muted. If you have this problem google the issue or: Open Control Center. If you have an iPad without Face ID, you open Control Center by swiping up from the bottom, but if your iPad does have Face ID, swipe down from the upper right corner. Look for the mute button. It's muted if it's highlighted, just tap it once to unmute the iPad. The mute button looks like a bell (it might have a slash through it on some iPads) Otherwise the app is better than sight words cards and other games we’ve tried. My son is 6, and he hates this less than my other efforts. I can also see see how it can be redundant. But again, so are flash cards.

The word lists are quite limited

KStrafel

I just downloaded this app to augment my pre-K daughter’s memorization of her sight words before kindergarten. I’m disappointed because the lists are quite limited and missing a large percentage of the words they need to know by the end of kinder. I am going to send a request to the developer to add the missing words for us. Better yet, I’d like to have the ability to add my own words! One more small annoyance, but real, is that the words are not in alphabetical order. This makes selecting individual words that you want your child to work on more cumbersome and time consuming than it needs to be. All told, it’s $2 bucks, so it did not break the bank...but it could be much better, with ease.
