I'm using these cards with my 3 1/2 year old who is starting to learn to read. There are 54 cards, mostly 3-6 letter common words on the front and back, 108 words total. The package states that sight words don't follow phonics rules, but some of these words are arguably phonetic in pronunciation. Still they're good to review often as they're very common words and he should be able to pick up on them quickly when reading a book.

I'm also using them to help build sentences. Since he can't quite write the letters/words yet, the cards are laid out in a line to form a short sentence that he can sound out or pick up from memory. I also have a tabletop pocket chart from Smethport that they can fit into. These are used in addition to the level A and C set.

Here are the words included in this set:

after, again, always, an, any, around, as, ask, baby, ball, because, been, before, bell, best, both, brother, buy, by, call, children, cold, could, day, does, doll, don't, every, fast, father, first, five, fly, found, from, gave, give, goes, going, green, had, hand, has, head, her, him, his, how, its, jump, just, know, let, live, made, many, may, more, mother, number, off, old, once, open, or, orange, over, people, please, pull, purple, put, read, right, round, sing, sister, sit, sleep, some, stop, take, tell, thank, their, them, then, these, think, those, tree, upon, us, use, very, walk, warm, wash, way, were, when, which, why, wish, work, would, write, your

I got this set for my son (as well as levels A and C) right before my son started kindergarten. It was nice to let him practice some of the easier sight words, and it really helped him as he started school. These flash cards are great as well, because they taught him words that are not pronounced phonetically as well as words that he began to see a lot as he started to read books. He enjoyed the "flash card" system, and even asked to work with them. Now, as he is in second grade, I still use the cards. This time, though, I use the cards to help him with spelling these words. He is an auditory learner and tends to try to write all words phonetically. By showing him these cards, I can let him see what the different words look like--and how they are not spelled as they are heard. My second son is starting kindergarten, and we have started to use the flash cards with him. I feel that we have gotten years of use out of these cards, especially since they are so durable. I know that they print words on both sides of the card to make the package less bulky, but I do wish , as another reviewer pointed out, that the words were only printed on one side so that I could put them in piles of "what my child knows" and "what my child doesn't know." Other than that, it is a wonderful educational product.

I have all three sets of these flash cards. My 1st Grader is now very excited about reading as the flashcards are more like a game to her than an actual task. The cards are very durable. I wish I would have purchased these last year when she was in Kindergarten.

The cards were very helpful in solving my problems in teaching my kids to read. It was a little tedious finding words so maybe indexing the cards could help.
