WordMint is a vocabulary study tool for classrooms. Students sign in with just a first name, last initial, and a class code — no accounts, no personal data stored.
Each session starts with a short diagnostic that identifies which words a student already knows, so instruction focuses only on unfamiliar words. Students then work through each word in context: they see it used in a sentence, reveal its definition, break it into prefixes, roots, and suffixes, and confirm understanding with a quick check.
Mixed practice follows with fill-in-the-blank sentences and concept maps. Educators manage everything from a dashboard: add vocabulary word-by-word or import a full word list and question set from a CSV template, organize words into sections, assign specific sections to each class, and view per-student results showing words known, words practiced, and mastery progress.
Three ways to build your vocabulary lists:
- Enter your own terms — add words one at a time in the dashboard, complete with definitions, example sentences, fill-in-the-blank questions, and word-part breakdowns
- Import a prefilled vocabulary set from CenterStaged.io — ready-made word sets across a variety of topics, uploaded to your dashboard in seconds
- Order a custom vocabulary set — have a set built to match your curriculum, unit, or reading list, delivered as a ready-to-upload file

Step 5 — Add your vocabulary
Open your classroom and click the Vocabulary tab. Choose one of three methods:
Option A: Enter words manually
- Click the Add Vocabulary Word form at the top of the tab
- Enter the word, definition, difficulty tier, a fill-in-the-blank sentence with answer choices, and optional word parts (prefix/root/suffix)
Option B: Build and upload a CSV
- In the Import Vocabulary & Sentences from CSV box, click Download Template
- Open the file in Excel or Google Sheets
- Add one row per word — keep the header row as-is
- Save the file as CSV
- Click Upload CSV and select your file

After any upload, wait for the green confirmation message (e.g., “20 words + 20 sentences imported”).
Step 6 — Assign sections

- If no sections are checked, students see all words
Step 7 — Have students sign in
- Share your class code with students
- Students go to your WordMint site and enter their first name, last initial, and class code
- No accounts, emails, or passwords required — no personal student data is stored
Step 8 — Track progress
Click the Student Results tab to view each student’s words known, words practiced, and mastery progress
1. Sign in and open the Vocabulary tab
Go to the Educator/Admin dashboard, sign in, open the classroom you want the words in, and click the Vocabulary tab.
2. Upload it
In the “Import Vocabulary & Sentences from CSV” box, click Upload CSV, then choose your prepopulated file.
3. Check the confirmation
You’ll see a green message like “20 words + 20 sentences imported.” If any rows had a problem, you’ll get a short warning naming the exact row so you can fix just that one and re-upload if needed.
Good to know:
- You don’t need the “Download Template” step — that’s only for building a file from scratch. A prepopulated file is ready to upload as-is.
- Uploading adds words to the classroom; it doesn’t erase what’s already there. If you upload the same file twice, you may get duplicates.
- After importing, your new words appear in the Vocabulary list grouped by their Section, and you can assign sections to classes in the Assign tab.

The Flow
Five Steps.
Zero Wasted Time.
STEP 01
Diagnostic
WordMint opens with a diagnostic that identifies which words the user already knows. Session contains only the words they don’t — no time spent on vocabulary the user already mastered.
STEP 02
Word in Context
Each new word appears in a real sentence first. Reading a word in context builds the user’s initial understanding before the application introduces a the definition.
STEP 03
Morphemic Analysis
Match each part of the word — prefix, root, suffix — to its meaning. Morphological awareness built this way transfers to unfamiliar words the user encounters long after the session ends.
STEP 04
Definition & Fill-in
The user selects the correct definition from carefully constructed options, then complete a fill-in-the-blank sentence. Comprehension first, then application — with an on-demand hint available if the user needs it.
STEP 05
Word Relationships
Sort synonyms and antonyms from a mixed list that includes wrong options. The user must reach a minimum number of correct selections to advance.
WHAT’S INSIDE
Every feature earns
its place.
Audio pronunciation + phonetic respelling
Learners hear each word and see a plain-English pronunciation guide before they are ever asked to use it lowering the barrier to engagement and building spoken confidence alongside written comprehension.
Concept mapping (synonyms and antonyms)
Learners sort true synonyms and antonyms from a mixed list that includes wrong options, and must reach a minimum number of correct selections before advancing. Knowing a word deeply means knowing what it isn’t.
Teacher-authored content
Educators build their own word lists directly in the dashboard or import a ready-made vocabulary pack. WordMint adapts to any subject, unit, reading level, or standard — not a fixed curriculum.
Contextual Fill-in-the-Blank with Constructed Distractors
Fill-in-the-blank items are built with distractors that require genuine comprehension rather than guessing. An on-demand hint provides scaffolding without interrupting independent practice.
Full word profiles
Every word includes a learner-friendly definition, part of speech, example sentence, and morpheme breakdown — prefix, root, and suffix with meanings. Multiple access points into a single word’s meaning, before learners are asked to use it independently.
Tiered and organized word lists
Words are organized by difficulty tier and unit, so intervention learners and advanced learners can work from the same platform at different levels of challenge — no separate setup required.
