A flashcard or flash card is a set of cards bearing information,
as words or numbers, on either or both sides, used in classroom drills
or in private study. One writes a question on a card and an answer
overleaf. Flashcards can bear vocabulary,
historical dates, formulas or any subject matter that can be learned
via a question-and-answer format. Flashcards are widely used as a learning drill to aid memorization by way of spaced repetition.
Paper flashcards have been used since at least the 19th century, with Reading Disentangled (1834), a set of phonics flashcards by English educator Favell Lee Mortimer being credited by some as the first flashcards. Previously, a single-sided hornbook had been used for early literacy education.
The following set of Animal Alphabet flash cards are the second half of those alphabet prints designed by C. B Falls. (Get the first half here.)
