All I can say is that I love Wonder Words!
Lynda Lamrock, Teacher, Special Education - Murwillumbah East Primary School, NSW
I have only been using wonder words a short time and can see the benefit of the design in meeting the needs of all learners within a class. Because each group of words and corresponding activities is self-contained, a teacher can have their class working on different sets of words at the same time. With the range of activities for each set of words, you can mix and match different activities to keep them interested and engaged.

Wonder Words is an effective, fun way to teach High-Frequency Words. It is comprehensive and assessment is on a three weekly basis. This provides an opportunity to concentrate on words students have not identified yet. It’s effective and user friendly. It is a systematic approach to learning sight words. My Kindergarten students love this program.
Jo Munro, Teacher – LaST, Mayfield East Public School, NSW
I think Wonder Words is an excellent program. My students are actively engaged in the program and they love learning new High-Frequency Words each week.
It is simple, easy, clear and concise in the delivery modes. Students are engaged and actively involved in literacy games, worksheets and readers. It’s a great program that I would highly recommend. It has allowed my kids to be self-directed learners. I absolutely love the program and can’t wait to use it again next year.

Wonder Words has been such a great resource for my class. I have been able to easily adapt it to suit my class and it fits in with the other spelling resources we use. Not only does it allow for easy differentiation, but also covers many High-Frequency Words, while using fun games and books for students to use. It allows you to teach High-Frequency Words and reading all in one. Great resources, especially books that allows kids to use and understand the words in context. My students know how far they have progressed and they are only 5! They are so proud of their achievements and so am I. Thanks Wonder Words!

It’s a great way to systematically expose kids to new words each week and have all the resources to support the learning!

Easy to follow program that supplements your current High-Frequency Words program; encourages independent work skills.
Kerri-Anne Spinks, Teacher – Year 1, NSW
Great for at risk students who need scaffolded learning in a predictable manner.
Students enjoy the variety of worksheets. They know what is expected and get started independently.
Betty Tzelepis, Teacher - Student Wellbeing F-6, Whittlesea PS, VIC
Wonder Words is great value for money that is easy to use and easy to implement with any existing program. Students love the activities that are quick and fun. The worksheet activities are fun and need very little preparation, as you just need to print them. I use reusable plastic sleeves and place the worksheets in them for the students to use with whiteboard pens. They also love the interactive books with the High-Frequency Words in them. No more searching for texts that target specific High-Frequency Words.
