Thousands of teachers love Word Builder.

You've just seen what Word Builder can do. Here's what they actually use it for.

Teach phonics explicitly

Make sound boxes, graphemes, and tricky parts visible so students can break apart words step by step.

Use it across the day

Model in whole class lessons, revisit in small groups, or use it as part of intervention and review.

Reduce prep without reducing quality

Jump straight into purposeful practice instead of building slides and manipulatives from scratch every time.

More literacy inside The Hive

If Word Builder clicks, these tools usually do too

A small sample of what else is in The Hive.

Decodable Words, Images & Sentences

Once students can build words, move them into connected reading practice. Same platform, no extra prep.

Syllable Mapper

Take word analysis further and map syllable types when students are ready to look at bigger words.

Word of the Day

A quick daily routine for vocabulary, morphology, and spelling rules that takes zero setup.

Syllable Sorter

Help students compare spelling patterns and syllable types as they start noticing how words are structured.

Four in a Roll

Extra practice without the busywork. Students get repeated retrieval in a format they actually enjoy.

Roll a Silly Sentence

A fun way to take phonics into sentence-level work. Playful, but still purposeful.

Lesson flow

All your teaching tools, on one slide.

Drop Word Builder into a slide deck alongside other teaching tools, annotate as you go, and keep the lesson moving.

Teacher feedback

What teachers are saying

I feel like I legit get emotional about it because I'm so passionate about just how much The Hive has changed my life as a teaching & how much it's helped my students!!! It saves my time and sanity but the best part is what it does for my students, skyrockets their learning & helps them grasp concepts they once struggled with 😭 Big love, the biggest love!The hive is amazing! It literally keeps my whole day organised. Couldn't live without it now. You have a career long subscriber in me! 🥰So worth it! I don't know how I ever taught without it now!Love it. Has cut my workload. I use the dashboard, slide deck, planner, resources, apps etc.
