The limited edition Magic 300 Words Playing Cards features the 201-300 most frequent words.

The Magic 300 Words (201-300) together with the Magic 100 Words (1-100) and the Magic 200 Words (101-200) make up on average 70% of all the words used in reading.

These Magic 300 Words Playing Cards match the sheets found in the M100W Magic 300 Words Teachers Literacy Manual which is used in over 80% of Australian Primary Schools.

When reading across the rainbow of words, children are exposed to words above and beyond what they may have been taught and will often know more words than expected. The number of words a child knows is far more important than what colour or level they are on.
