Vocabulary Spelling City

 Charlie struggles with Spelling so this morning I wanted to share with you one of the websites we will be using for spelling. The website is called Vocabulary Spelling City and it is both a paid and free site.
Let me give you a tip I always use the free site for a while before I pay as this gives me a feel for the site and helps me decide if it is right for our family. Once we decide that then I weigh the paid benefits against the free benefits and decide to pay or not.
Because like I have said time and time again you can homeschool for free although sometimes  you will find you need to spend money. So the choice is up to you to pay for a free site or use the paid version.
 Age Range: 5-18 (Grades K-12 with parental supervision, but most of the activities are geared for elementary grade students.)
This ad-supported website offers free activities and games to help students improve their spelling and vocabulary skills.

The activities include audio recordings so you can hear every spelling word pronounced, and also hear it used in a sentence.

In addition to the freebies, the site offers a “Premium Membership” for a fee – but you don’t need to purchase a thing to access the following:

  • Spelling Test Me – Take quizzes to test your spelling skill on words covering myriad topics such as science, math, history, etc. Try spelling contractions, Dolch Sight Words, SAT Vocabulary and more.
  • Spelling Teach Me – Students can choose from predetermined word lists and then engage in a classic spelling learning method that includes visual and auditory modalities in each lesson.
  • Spelling Games and Activities – Play word search, word unscrambles, word matching games and more – that are generated from word lists available at the site.
  • And lots more.

You’ll also find free, printable handwriting worksheets, and games that teach concepts such as alphabetizing and sentence structure.

Again, you can access the basic games and activities absolutely free without registration. If you want to save your word lists, then you must register for an account (at no cost). You can also purchase a “Premium Membership” that includes a variety of “extras” that you can learn more about at the website.

I have a question for you if you have used Vocabulary Spelling City what did you like about it and what didn’t you like about it and why? Or if you haven’t used Vocabulary Spelling City does this sound like a Homeschool Resource you would like to check into and if so why and if not why not?

 Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
