Dr.Fry's high frequency "instant words", 500 more words.
Expanding on the Dolch sight words, Dr. Edward B. Fry in 1996 created a new list of high frequency words (“Fry Words”). These are the most common words used in English ranked by order of frequency. Dr. Fry found that 25 words make up 1/3 of all words published, 100 make up ½ of all words published and 300 make up 65% of all written material. These high frequency words should be recognized instantly by young readers. These are helpful for adults learning English as a second language as well as for children. This app contains the second group of 500 words divided into five levels and then divided into groups of twenty-five, based on frequency of use and difficulty in a flash card setting. Features included: • The second group of 500 more Fry Words • The word is read out when the card is touched • Cards can be marked for the Review list (use the star to mark and settings to clear) • Long press buttons to jump to start or end Paid ad-free version also available.
