Practice the real spelling test
Hear each word in a sentence, spell it from memory, then check it and fix it. That's the way research says works. Free, with no account.
Where do this week's words come from?
Spell it. Check it. Fix it.
Every practice mode and every printed test follows the same three steps, so every missed word ends with your child spelling it right.
- 1
Spell it
The app says the word, a sentence, then the word again. Your child spells the whole word from memory.
- 2
Check it
Their try appears right above the correct spelling, with the letters that differ marked.
- 3
Fix it
Both words disappear and your child spells it once more. A word counts as fixed only when it's right.
