Foundations Trick Words: Essential Sight Words for Early Literacy FLASHCARDS

Mastering sight words is a crucial step for young readers, and our Fundations Trick Words Flashcards provide a structured, engaging way to build literacy skills. These trick words, also known as sight words or high-frequency words, are a key component of the phonics-based Fundations program. Because these words often don't follow standard phonetic rules, they can be tricky for early learners to decode.
