SpellingCity.com: Teach Children to Spell Online

I have wrote about different spelling programs in the past. A lot of them were great programs. I recently ran across a place online that allows children to study their spelling words. I really liked this site and wanted to share it with others. This site is called SpellingCity.com. At Spelling City you can create an account for the teacher. Then you can create your spelling list and add them to the site. You will have your own account page and sections. You can enter the spelling words weekly or you can enter them all at one time for the entire school year. You can also use spelling words that have already been added to the site.

When it's time for the student to learn a new set of spelling words, they go to the site, search for your name or the title of the spelling list for that week and their spelling words will appear.

They can have their spelling words read to them. They can play games using their spelling words, and they can take test. They have eight games that the child can play to study their spelling words. The games are Word Search, Hang Mouse, Unscramble, Audio Word Match, Which Word, Missing Letter, Crossword, and Unscramble Sentence. That will keep your child busy. If your child loves games, then this would be a great way to teach your child their spelling words.

The Teach Me section is great too because they spelling words are read to the child. That saves you time by not having to read over the words. If you're home schooling more than one child, you need to save as much time as possible. I know with me, I have a full day of school.

When you sign up as a teacher, you will also have access to the forums. On the forums you can talk to other teachers and parents. You can discuss just about anything. You can also get new ideas for spelling and other things.

Creating an account is easy. Visit their site and click the teacher link. On the right side of the page you will see a description of what they have to offer. After reading the description, you can sign up. At the top of the page you will see the Register link. Click that link to begin your registration. On the next page you will need to select if you're a teacher, home school parent / teacher, or if you're just registering for the forums. Select the option of your choice and click the Next button.

On the next page you will need to enter your city and state. Then enter your personal information on the next page. Click the Send Registration button to complete the registration. Now you are ready to start using Spelling City.
