Description

"A great way to give parents a break and let your kid have fun and learn to read at the same time." - Jen, Kindergarten teacher and mom of three. I have a confession to make. My son's favorite game was Fruit Ninja and I was getting increasingly frustrated with having my son waste a lot of time on a fun but mindless game while he was still struggling to master his sight words and learning to read. So I decided to create our very own Sight Words slicing game and to my and my son's delight, he now has a new favorite game where he is having fun and learning at the same time. My sons skills in recognizing Sight Words have dramatically improved since he started playing this game and now I no longer have to feel guilty when I need a five minute break to take care of the laundry or prepare lunch for the kids. I know that they are having fun and that they are learning at the same time. Warning: Your child will keep begging for your iPhone or iPad after they try this app. Sight Words Ninja is an exciting educational game that helps kids rapidly learn sight words by sight, sound, and touch. The interface is so easy to use that even a 9 month old baby will delight in using this app. FEATURES: • Slice your way through all sights words from preschool to grade 3 • You decide what to focus on - turn individual categories ON or OFF from the settings page • Learn by sight, sound, and touch • Fun game play, sounds, and animations keep kids engaged • Dynamic game play adjusts difficulty (the number of sight words) automatically based on player skills to keep kids both challenged and entertained vs. getting bored • Supports 3 difficulty settings: EASY, MEDIUM, or HARD EASY MODE: - Max 1 sight word - Sight words move very slowly - Great for introducing sight words one at a time MEDIUM MODE: - Starts with 1 sight word - Max of 3 sight words on screen - Sight words move 30% faster HARD MODE: - Starts with 2 sight words - Max of 5 sight words on screen - Sight words move even faster - Sight words rotate faster too Adjust difficulty from settings page. • Wrong answers do not interfere with gameplay, the child can immediately try again and slice the correct answer (most other games are too slow to keep kids interested by interrupting the gameplay and slowly repeating the desired question) • Play Sight Words from A to Z or in random order (adjustable from settings page) • Multi-sensory learning tool - combining audio, voice, and touch • Want to work on just a few Sight Words? No problem… head to the settings page to turn entire categories or individual Sight Words on and off • Want to record your own audios? No problem. Just click on the category and record your own Sight Words sounds • Supports three levels of difficulty HEROIC SUPPORT Heroic Support is not just what we do. It's really what makes us, well, us. It's that drive to make a difference in your life - no matter how big or small. Really, it's our way of life because we want you to be our customer for a lifetime of fun and learning. Have questions?

Trash do not buy
This app does not let you customize your own words it does not let you record anything it’s terrible I don’t know what else to say about it please don’t buy it it’s a total waste of money and everything and description is a lie

Pretty good
We got this to review reading sight words for my not always cooperative incoming second grader and he finds it engaging and cooperates at least sometimes

Needs Improved
First of all, you can’t turn down the volume. And it needs more levels, it only goes to the third grade.

Terrible
Waste of money. The words don’t even sync with words being said

Not enough words
Feels incomplete.

No custom lists of words
This game needs the ability to add your own child’s specific sight words that they are studying in school to help them study for tests.
knsurace2022-08-28

Pointless
There is absolutely nothing to this game. I have no idea how this would remotely help a child learn. What a complete waste of time.
KataMaran222022-06-18
★★★★
No sound
The sound stopped working after the first time I tried it. You also can’t add words that are missing from their premade lists.
★★★★
Cute—No Learning Involved
Like others said, my kids just mindlessly swipe every word as it comes up. My littlest does just as well as the older kids. I wish it worked. The graphics are cute!

Not what the description says
You can’t add your own sights words like it said in the description. Total rip off!
TheBrownFam62022-02-24

Not for learning sight words
Mindless, wasted time! This is not designed for learning. What a shame, it had potential. Designed for kids to swipe back and forth on the screen until everything gets cut up. CHILDREN WONT BOTHER READING. Setting the app level did not work. Microphone access ? Why, that did nothing.
DancerGirl🍭2022-02-10
★★★★
Not a challenge at all
They say a word and the words pops up on the screen so slow that it becomes the only option for a child to swipe. There is no challenge the child just has to keep swiping. I would say this is only to help become more familiarized with words.

Sound doesn’t always work.
This is a neat concept. I hope over time my 4 year old will get something from it. It is frustrating that the app’s sound only works some of the time so she isn’t hearing what the words are. Wouldn’t recommend it as a learning app for this reason.

No sound
It has potential but the sound doesn’t work every time you open the app. Major flaw.

Sound doesn’t work
This could be a great app - if the sound actually worked. Super lame for an app that requires sound to play and isn’t free.

The sound doesn’t work. It would be a great game if the sound worked consistently

Disappointed
I bought this app because I read that I could add my own sight words. Not the case here. You can turn their provided words on/off in settings. You cannot add your own. I’d like a refund.

Do not buy
I know it’s only $1.99 but it is a waste of $$$. The only good thing about it is the concept. My child was totally into it. However, the app works by the narrator reading each word and the kid just slices the word. My child just swiped all the words as fast as she could. There was no word repetition or word grouping. This does not help a kid retain the info. Also, as another reviewer stated, you cannot turn words off without clicking each word or an ability to set the level of the “reader”. The only way we were able to make it work was to turn the sound off and I said my child could not

Waste of money
The sound randomly works and doesn’t work. The game is basically just fruit ninja with words. The kid just can just swipe all over to cut words and since the sound rarely works there’s no real learning happening. Pointless $2 spent.

Have fun finding sight words.
Supacon272020-11-15

Not what I expected
Very boring and I’m not sure that it’s very educational. Can be “won” even with no sound on. The kid just needs to touch or swipe every word that pops up. It doesn’t test whether the kid recognizes them or not, plus just gets boring after one minute of that as nothing changes.

Is there audio?
I downloaded but there’s no audio.

If your kids loves fruit ninja and needs to learn some sight words then this combo makes it more fun and easier

This app is great in theory but the follow through isn’t. The words stay on the side and aren’t fully visible. Defeats the purpose. Also, the words in the word bank are not the words my child needs to know. I wish there was an option to type my own words. My son would slice the correct word and not get points and sometimes get points for the wrong words. Do not waste your money.
