Sight Words 2 : 140+ learn to read flashcards

While the graphics are not as clean and appealing as others, I like how you interact more with the sight words than in some other apps. I don't want to sound like a prude, here. But why have the kids shooting a gun at the word? Seems more violent than necessary. I like my shoot 'em up games as much as the next person... But not for my PreK children. I would have given five stars if that were more kids friendly.

Maybe if it allowed you to enter custom words... but even with that $5 is a little steep for such a basic interface. The “hard” words are not 2nd grade level.

I use this app at home for my 3 year old and at the school where I teach. This app is extremely easy to use and with multiple games, keeps children engaged for long while continuously learning by the repetitive voices of words and letters! Great app!! Definitely recommend the upgrade for all words.

The game ideas are engaging and effective for retention, but there are just 20 words. There are just ten words on the second grade word tour. There are usually 100 to 200 words on a school's list for one grade level. The Fry list is the most commonly used list. This isn't going to work for my students for more than one day.

No back button!! Words and games are great but cannot back out of a game/category or switch to another category without closing the app and opening again. Plus if you want to switch from 1st to 2nd grade words you have to go into settings which you cannot access except on the very first page which means closing and restarting app in order to access.
