4 stars

This sight word app is great, very useful. Especially I like the app because I can see the progress of my children by thumps up or down. There are only 2 things which will make me give 5 stars 1-if I can put the sight word that this does not have; 2-if I can name the custom list.

Potential to be great!

I would give this five stars immediately if not for the following....
1. I want to be able to choose the icon for a missed word. Some kids don't mind the sad face and others are defeated after the first time you touch the sad face and cry. I want to pick from a list of generic icons and code the missed responses myself. They accept their mistakes more readily when they don't see a huge sad face when they make a mistake.
2. Sometimes I want to go through all missed words at once without having to go to each different set to find them. I want a master list of missed words that includes all from each set for each child. If this is already possible, please point it out to me.
Fix the above and I will recommend this to everyone I know!

Love this app. Has made a difference!

My son is now so much more confident!!
He has moved Head and Shoulders above his classmates .... From a previous place of struggle!

Works great

My 1st grader loved it. Saves me the time of making flash cards. Found out the teach was using the exact same program.

Amazing!!

I love this app! My sons teacher has been using it and thanks to this new update she can use it for her whole class not just those who need RTI. I just started using it with my reading kids as well and I can't say enough good things about it!!

Great app!

Just found this and love it! Was able to customize lists for my twins who are in Kindergarten. Only thing I wish I could do is add words to the list that aren't in the main list. My girls have 'word families' on their sight word lists from school and words like tip, sip, dip or jog, hog, fog aren't in there. Add that and this would make a 5 star app!

Not suitable for ipad

This is a great app but I downloaded for my ipad as it says that it is compatible with ipad ... by compatible they mean that everything is just zoomed to make it fit onto the bigger screen - and what happens when you zoom something - IT GOES BLURRY!! Really disappointing :-(

perfect

just what I wanted for my grade 1 daughter!!!

Perfect!

Well done - no more little bits of paper...

My daughter is reading!

We are homeschoolers and my daughter struggles to read. This app has proven to be the single best resources for her. She has mastered 9 lists in less than a week. We love this app!!
