Tricky Words

Keep a personal list of the words your child keeps stumbling on, mark each one as mastered when it clicks, and watch the list move from learning to mastered over time.

Add a child to start. A nickname is enough, no real name needed.

What the Tricky Words tracker does

Generic lists of common tricky words only go so far. The words your child actually stumbles on are personal, and they change over time. Keeping your own list means practice targets exactly what is hard right now, not what a textbook assumes is hard.

Add a word the moment it trips your child up, mark it learning or mastered, and watch the list shift over time. When you want to practice, export or print the list and use it with the Worksheet Generator for a printable sheet. Everything stays on your device, from kindlexy.com.

How it works

  1. 1

    Add a word

    Whenever your child gets stuck on a word, add it in a second. The list builds itself from real reading.

  2. 2

    Mark the status

    Tap the leaf to turn a word into a check when your child recognises it comfortably. Learning becomes mastered.

  3. 3

    See progress

    A progress bar shows how much of the list is mastered, a quiet record of real growth over time.

  4. 4

    Turn it into practice

    Export your list as a CSV or print it, then use the words with the Worksheet Generator or as flashcards.
