How to help your child study for a spelling test
Little and often. Ten minutes a day from Monday works far better than an hour on Thursday night. Test, don't just copy. Writing a word from memory, then checking it, builds spelling much faster than copying it out ten times. Focus on the misses. This page brings missed words back at the end, so the time goes where it's needed. Say it in a sentence. If two words sound alike (right and write), use each in a sentence so your child knows which one they're spelling.
Look, say, cover, write, check
The classic routine, and the one the printable sheet follows: look at the word, say it out loud, cover it, write it from memory, then check. Repeat for any word that wasn't right.
Questions
How do I practice spelling words online?
Type or paste your child's spelling list into the box (or pick a grade list) and press Start. Each word is read aloud; your child types it and gets instant feedback. Missed words come back at the end until they're all right.
Does it work on iPhone and iPad?
Yes. It uses your device's built-in voice, so it works in Safari on iPhone and iPad, and in Chrome or Edge on computers and Chromebooks. Turn the ringer on if you can't hear it on iPhone.
Can teachers share a list with a class?
Yes. Enter the words, press Share list, and send the link. Anyone who opens it gets the same words ready to practice, with no accounts or logins.
How can I print a spelling practice sheet?
Press Print practice sheet. You get a page with each word to trace and copy three times, plus a blank numbered test on the back half for a practice quiz at home.
What is the best way to learn spelling words?
Short, daily practice beats one long session the night before. A good routine is look, say, cover, write, check: read the word, say it, cover it, write it from memory, then check. Testing yourself, as this page does, is one of the most effective ways to remember.
