SpellQuizzer

Apr 28 | SpellQuizzer

SpellQuizzer is a great program to use for spelling practice. The parent can record the spelling words for the week into the computer and allow the child to then practice on their own. Students really enjoy using this program to practice spelling words as it makes learning them fun. Be creative and use a funny voice as you record the words. Ask your child's tutor or teacher for other creative ways to practice spelling words.
