Most Helpful Reviews

Sir Linkalot

Steph Apps, Class teacher: It is fun and enjoyable, easy to use and the children love it!
ross, teacher: Works well and the children enjoy it. Would be nice if there was an option to see words grouped in the same way as the National Curriculum.
Lilly Tanton, Teacher: Children enjoy the videos, they are quick and easy to use and having adopted the concept (and been our own version of Sir Linkalot) my spelling club have drastically improved their spellings and enjoyed it too!
