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 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

Wonder Words is great for individual learning of High-Frequency Words as well as small group work. There are plenty of resources both for classroom and home use.

Stacey Bourke, Teacher - Year 2, NSW
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
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.
