Totally awesome spelling activity that takes almost no energy on your part. Awesome!

Do your kids have weekly spelling test?  Do you have an iPhone?  I have something fooooorrrr yoooouuuuu!

(If you haven't already) download the Spell Test app.  It's free! but even if it wasn't it'd be worth the $0.99.

It's really easy and within minutes you can have your child's entire spelling list entered and the words recorded.


Download Spell Test


You enter their words and as you enter them it asks you to speak the word.


Your child gets on and it speaks the word you entered and recorded (your voice!)  He/she can click "say word again" if he/she need it repeated.  The child is to type the word in.  He/she then hits "next" and it goes on through the entire spelling list.


At the end of the test it will show the child the words he/she spelled correctly and the words he/she didn't with the correct spelling given. (took this image from google, this is not one Drew did).


You can easily check in and see how your child has done!

Drew takes my iPhone to bed with her and does her tests and she retakes them over and over from previous weeks.  It's also something good to throw at them while you're waiting at the doctor's office or whatever.  It keeps them quite is a good educational activity.

Now go download this app and help create good spellers!
