Turn any Bob Books page into sight words flashcards with AI
Printed sight word sets cover a fixed list. Upload the pages your child is reading and get flashcards built from those exact words, with spaced repetition to bring back the ones they miss.
Why generated cards beat a generic sight word set
Bob Books sight words flashcards work best when they match the words in the book your child is reading this week. A fixed printed set cannot follow the story, but cards made from the child's own pages keep practice tied to what they will read next.
- Cards built from the exact words in your child's current reader
- Photos of book pages are read with text recognition
- Spaced repetition brings missed words back sooner
- Free plan studies in the browser, Plus adds PDF and Anki export
Built from the actual text
Upload a PDF, a photo of a page, or typed notes and DeckOwl pulls out the words your child is working on.
Spaced repetition
Words that are missed come back sooner, and words that stick appear less often, so practice time goes where it is needed.
Study anywhere
Free plan users study in the browser. Plus adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export for printing or practice away from the screen.
How it works
Upload the pages or word list
Add a PDF, DOCX, slide deck, plain text file, or a photo of the book page.
Generate sight word cards
DeckOwl creates flashcards with the target words on the front and a clear answer on the back.
Review on a schedule
Study a few minutes a day and let spaced repetition decide which words need another pass.
Irregular words such as said, come, and what need the most repetition because standard phonics rules do not decode them. DeckOwl builds those words into the deck, and spaced repetition returns the ones that slip, so regular and irregular words get the review they each need.

Frequently asked questions
How many sight words should a child learn at once?
Small groups work best, often five to ten new words at a time, reviewed every day before new ones are added. Start with the words in the book your child is reading now.
Do sight words need to be memorized or sounded out?
Regular words can usually be sounded out with phonics, while irregular words such as said and come are learned by repeated recognition. Mixing both kinds in short daily reviews works well.
Can I export these flashcards to print or to Anki?
PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export are included in the Plus plan, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month. The free plan lets you study the cards in your browser.
Do I need a credit card to try DeckOwl?
No. You can start on the free plan with 3 generations per month, and students get 40% off with a school email.
