It is an excellent resource. However, sometimes the accents/pronunciation of the words are difficult to hear.

Reply from Spellzone:Many thanks for your feed-back Kait, it is much appreciated. Spellzone utilises browser-based synthetic speech technology for the word lists (other course related audio is recorded by actors). This technology enables users to have instant access to the on-line spelling activities and games using words lists created by them on any subject or difficulty. We recommend using the Google Chrome browser as this provides the best speech synthesis.
Kait Conway found Spellzone:
  • Moderately reduces teacher workload
    Students are able to work independently and it can be differentiated.
  • Moderately reduces attainment gap
    I use it to support those who find it easier to learn whole words (particularly everyday non-phonetically spelled words)
  • Moderately provides school data
    We are able to identify those who need help more easily.
  • Moderately improves attainment
    Students who engage fully with the program show marked improvement in their spelling - particularly those with dyslexia or suspected dyslexia.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    Students are able to extrapolate spelling rules and anomalies.
