My strugglers quickly learnt their first sight words. I have already recommended Wonder Words to others.

Our Prep Team has implemented the Wonder Words program. It has been an engaging way for students to learn common High-Frequency Words. The different activities ensure different learning styles are catered for and the variety of activities and lists make differentiation easy.

Wonder Words has been a fantastic classroom resource for my students. They have experienced success and built their confidence as a result of the program, and it has saved me a lot of time creating my own personalised resources. Very easy to differentiate and personalise to the needs of my students.

Wonder Words is a great resource that you can use for students who need more support. The Wonder Words activities are easy to use and the students love it! I am able to individualize the resources for students who need more support.
It is easy and has great short books, which have relevant pictures and decodable words. Great for those students who have processing concerns. Tasks are easy and step by step instructions

Our Head of Special Education recommended Wonder Words. It’s good to have printable, web based resources. It’s an easy program to pick up and run with. Give it a go!

I teach a class made up of students with special needs. It is often difficult to gain and retain their interest and engagement. They consistently need over learning to ensure retention and recall. This programme is highly effective as a way to make a potentially laborious activity fun and not seem like a drill. There are many resources to use to cater to different abilities and I use them in different ways. The resources are visually appealing and capture my students’ interest. My students especially enjoy watching and joining in with the video animations for the list words and the readers. The pictures are childlike and not too busy or distracting. My students’ growth is incremental due to their learning challenges, but they have an overall better recall than before, which is showing up during writing sessions. I have noticed that they are starting to demonstrate improvements with their participation and their recall.

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

Most of my students are diagnosed with dyslexia and struggle to learn new words. This is the only program that I have found, which has assisted my students to learn and remember words taught.

Trial the program. You won’t be disappointed, as you see your students’ confidence and reading ability grow! My students have increased their sight vocabulary and enjoy the program. It’s a great program that students enjoy. Go for it!
