Turn any sight word list into kindergarten flash cards with AI
Printable sheets show the words someone else picked. Upload your own word list, a photo of the teacher's handout, or class notes, and DeckOwl turns them into flash cards your child can review with spaced repetition.
Why a custom set beats a printable sheet
A printable sheet can only show the words someone else chose, and it rarely matches the list a kindergarten teacher sends home. Upload your child's actual list and DeckOwl builds a 100 sight words kindergarten flash cards set from it, so the practice matches what is being taught that week.
- Use the list your child's teacher sends home, not a generic sheet
- Keep sessions short, about 5 to 10 minutes a day
- Say each word aloud and use it in a simple sentence
- Review missed words first, then add new ones slowly
Starts from your own list
Upload a PDF, a photo of a handout, or typed notes. The flash cards follow the words your child is actually learning.
Spaced review
Cards that are missed come back sooner, and words that are known appear less often, so short daily practice stays focused.
Works on any device
Study in the browser on a tablet or laptop. The free plan includes study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
How it works
Upload the word list
Add a PDF, DOCX, slides, notes, or a clear photo of the list. Photos are read with text recognition.
Review the cards
Check the generated front and back of each card, then remove or add words before your child starts.
Practice daily
Study in short sessions. Spaced repetition brings back the words that need more practice.
Sight words are learned by repeated exposure, which is why spaced review works well for them. Cards for words a child misses return sooner, and words they already know come up less often.
Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki, and CSV export, so you can print a copy or import the set into another app. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser at no cost to start.

Frequently asked questions
How many sight words should a kindergartner learn?
Schools set their own targets, so the teacher's list is the best guide. The Fry first 100 words is a common starting list that many classrooms use.
How do I practice sight words with a kindergartner?
Short daily sessions work better than long ones. Read each card aloud together, have the child say the word, then go back over any words they missed.
Can I export the flash cards to print them?
PDF export is included in the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, along with DOCX, Anki, and CSV export. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser.
