## What is Sight Words and Spelling Games?

More than just flashcards! Children write, read and play as they learn sight words. Sight word lists are included for kindergarten and first grade and you can easily add your own word lists. Great for parents and teachers alike!

This sight words app will help your student or child learn important sight words, and it can be easily customized with new word lists such as weekly spelling lists. You can also organize your lists into custom groups—for different students, classes, levels, and so forth.

This app makes learning fun as children engage in these colorful and interactive activities:

* RAINBOW WORDS:  Write the sight or spelling word with multiple colors using the guide letters given.
* MATCH THE WORD:  Create the word with letter cards, using the example word, and then…
* BUILD THE WORD:  Create the word using the letter cards, this time without an example.
* TOUCH AND SAY:  Find the target word in a list of mixed up and different words.
* STAR WORD BLACKOUT:  Play a bingo-inspired game with the word list.
* WORD MEMORY:  Play a matching game with the word list.

This app is self-correcting, and provides immediate feedback using sounds and colors to let students know if the word is correct. When students finish the activities for all of the words on the list, they are rewarded with fireworks!

Personalize the learning experience by selecting which activities the app will present for each word in the selected list. Want to focus on learning the individual letters of the words? Select just the "Match the Word" and "Build the Word" exercises. Practice handwriting paired with a memory game, or any other combination your student needs.

### 1/5 — Hearing background noise

*2022-06-13, version 1.4*

You can hear a couple talking and it’s weird. Confused on why my child can hear adults talking.

### 3/5 — Nice app

*2016-09-20, version 1.1*

It would be really nice if the volume would work. I have no volume at all.

### 5/5 — Spelling

*2015-02-10, version 1.1*

This has been a great tool to help our 1st grader prepare for his Friday spelling tests.

### 4/5 — Great customizable app!

*2014-09-22*

Great app. Lots of variety with games to practice words and the option to customise word lists too from school spelling lists. Only problem is that even though the option is given to record the words, these do not work nor do the general sounds when in customisable lists. Still happy with the app though.

### 3/5 — Ok

*2013-10-10, version 1.0*

I would have liked to have had the option to hear the words.
