What students practice

Heart Words Flash at a glance.

Sight words, read on sight. A word flashes in the heart card for a moment and hides, and the student reads it aloud while you score it, or picks the word they saw among look-alikes (was or saw, went or want). The flash can speed up as they get them right and slow down after a miss, to build fast, automatic reading. Sight Bingo's words and recordings: English Pre-K to 1st grade and Spanish kindergarten to 3rd grade. Each round ends with the words read fast and the ones to keep practicing, and a round of just those. Each student's levels, language, speed and options are saved.
