Learning to read using sight words is a very common practice for the English language. The theory is that if children learn to identify these very high frequency words very quickly, they will know how to read the majority of the text in a book and they would be left with less words to decode. If you ever wondered how to teach your child to read, this method is proven to work great.
There are several lists published on Sight words for different age groups.
The two most notable lists are:
- Dolch Sight Words - organized in lists for pre-primer, primer, grade 1, grade 2, grade 3 and nouns
- Fry Sight Words - in 10 lists of 100 words
Here are more details about sight words and the different lists available:

This Flash Cards App was built with simplicity in mind. We want to offer the teachers or the parents the easiest way to access the flash cards. The cards are changing in alphabetical order with a simple tap on the screen, or can be shuffled with the shuffle switch at the bottom. For children, the experience is very similar to what it would be using cardboard flashcards.
And because it is designed for children we made sure that our app contains no ads, in app purchases, upgrades or other annoying interruptions that a lot of free apps have these days.
