How to Use

Children can use all on their own. Each focused sight word contains its own colorful button that when touched can be listen to as often as the child would like. After each story word is viewed, a check mark appears next to the sight word button. Only after all 16 story words have been viewed are the 2 practice games available.

The Bubble Game

The sight words appear on the screen inside bubbles. A sight word is said and upon touching the right word the bubble will pop. This repeats itself until all words touched are correct. A praise sign will appear saying, “Great job”!

The Card game

A deck of sight word cards appear across the screen. As a card is touched, it turns over and displays a sight word. If two cards with the same sight word turns over and it’s a match, the game says the word and the cards remain face up with the sight word showing. If two cards are touched displaying different sight words (no match) the cards are turned back over. This continues until a match is found for all the words. This game improves eye hand coordination, builds memory, and provides extra practice hearing and seeing the sight words learned.

Phonics help children learn the sounds of their language; while Sight Words that TEACH teaches children to read fluently and with comprehension. It truly puts the fun back into learning to read.
