How the game teaches them
Most sight words have no picture, so the card shows a big ear. Your child taps it, hears the word and spells it with letter tiles. A few, like colors and numbers, keep a picture.
White is in the age 5 th, wh cards with a picture, so the whole primer list is in the age 5 deck. The Play button plays the sight word cards.
