Why generate your own sight word cards

Kindergarten teachers usually send home a specific list of kindergarten sight words flashcards material, and that list is what a child needs to practice. A generic printable may cover different words, so a card set built from your own list matches what is being taught.

  • Use the exact word list your child's class is working on
  • Practice a few words each day rather than the whole list at once
  • Add new words as the teacher introduces them
  • Keep the same deck so spaced repetition can track which words need more review
Example kindergarten sight word flashcards
theIrregular word that does not follow the usual sound rules, so it is learned by sight.
saidThe ai is pronounced like short e, so this word is memorized rather than sounded out.
whereA question word about place, as in 'Where is my bag?'
comeThe o sounds like short u, as in 'come home,' so it is learned by sight.
littleA two-syllable word, lit-tle, meaning small, as in 'a little dog.'

Frequently asked questions

How many sight words should a kindergartner learn?

Many kindergarten programs start from the Dolch pre-primer and primer lists, but teachers often set their own targets. Check your child's school word list first and build the flashcards from that list.

How often should a child practice sight word flashcards?

Short daily sessions of a few minutes tend to work better than one long session. Spaced repetition brings back the words a child misses more often.

Can I print the flashcards as a PDF?

PDF export is part of the Plus plan, which costs $39 a year or $7.99 a month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser without exports.

Can I make flashcards from a photo of a word list?

Yes, photos of pages are read with text recognition, so a snapshot of a printed list works. Check the generated cards against the original before printing.
