Spelling practice

Spelling practice that feels like a game, and works like a drill.

Copying out lists rarely sticks. Here your child listens, chooses, gets an answer immediately, and watches the whole A–Z board fill in — which is what keeps a ten-year-old coming back tomorrow.

  • Hear it, then spell it

    Each word is read aloud in a British voice first, so your child links the sound of a word to how it's written, not just how it looks.

  • Spot the real one among look-alikes

    Instead of guessing blind, they choose between realistic mistakes — the same slips that cost marks in the exam. Hundreds of Year 5/6 words have hand-written wrong options.

  • Exam-style questions too

    Find the group of words with the spelling mistake, or choose N when there isn’t one — the same format as the real papers, built on every statutory word from Years 3 to 6.

  • Instant feedback, every word

    Right or wrong straight away, and the correct spelling shown after a miss, while the word is still fresh in their mind.

  • Progress you can actually see

    Every word is colour-coded — grey not tried, red needs practice, green got it. The latest attempt counts, so a red word can turn green.

  • Short rounds, your way

    Drill every word beginning with one letter, or take a random mix of ten. Small sessions are easy to fit around school.
