Why build 11+ vocabulary cards from your own material

Ready-made lists of 11+ words are common, but no single list matches every test paper. The most useful way to build vocabulary flashcards for 11+ is to start from the words your child has actually met in reading and practice papers.

  • Use words from your child's own reading and past papers
  • Include synonyms, antonyms and meanings in the same deck
  • Review in short daily sessions rather than cramming
  • Check each card before studying so errors do not stick
Example 11+ vocabulary flashcards (synonyms and meanings)
Synonym of 'benevolent'?Kind, generous or well-meaning
Antonym of 'scarce'?Plentiful or abundant
Meaning of 'candid'?Honest and direct about what you think
Synonym of 'reluctant'?Unwilling or hesitant
Meaning of 'ambiguous'?Open to more than one interpretation; unclear

Works from your material

Upload a PDF, slides, typed notes or a photo of a word list. The text is read and turned into cards you can check before studying.

Spaced repetition

Words come back just before they are likely to be forgotten, so the ones your child finds hard appear more often.

Study anywhere

Practice in the browser on the free plan. Paid plans add exports to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV for other tools.

How it works

Add your words

Upload the word list, reading passage or practice paper your child is working from.

Check the cards

Review the generated fronts and backs and fix any entries that do not match the definitions you want.

Study a little each day

Work through the due cards in short sessions, and let spaced repetition choose what comes back next.

DeckOwl reads those sources and writes cards with a word or term on the front and its meaning or synonym on the back. Your child can then drill the words that cause trouble without wading through a generic list.

Keep sessions short and frequent. A few minutes most days, with cards scheduled by spaced repetition, usually works better than a long review the night before a test.

Frequently asked questions

How many vocabulary words should a child learn for the 11+?

There is no official word list, because each test provider sets its own papers. Build the list from the reading and practice papers your child uses, and add words as they come up.

How often should a child review vocabulary flashcards?

Short daily sessions work better than long weekly ones. Spaced repetition brings each card back just before it is likely to be forgotten.

Can I export DeckOwl flashcards to Anki?

Yes, exports to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV are on the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser.
