  • Very Helpful

    This is a wonderful tool to help kids learn spelling. The ability to record the word aloud, and in a sentence, is also helpful. I can give my granddaughter the iPad and let her off by herself and practice her spelling words. She also likes the Word Search feature too. Nice job on this app!
  • Love this app!

    As a teacher of children with additional needs, I find this app to be one of the best I have seen in this genre. It consolidates learning thought sight, sound and touch.

    Love it.
  • Not impressed

    Bought this because I was so impressed with the math app that I had purchased from the same company. I was not expecting to supply the words for this program and still don't know how to use the ones that I did provide. It is the least intuitive product that I have ever purchased related to an Apple device. I should have saved the $4.99, purchased some lined paper, and created my own spellboard.

  • Spell board

    I had thought this would improve my spelling but you have to imput the word you need help spelling first which I think somewhat defeats the object. Wish I had realised this before I paid for it
  • Love it! Almost perfect.

    One detail that my kid stumbles on is the green check or red "x" that appear after every attempt. As soon as she sees that she got one wrong she knows it's not 100% and becomes frustrated. If there were a setting to not display each word's status until the test was complete, that would be nice. Thanks for improving her spelling grades.

  • MUCH BETTER

    Excited to see the changes on this version! The recorded words and phrases sound waaaay better and are now actually useful. I like the idea of being able to add a pic for each word. Havnt tried that feature yet though. Would like to not have to change the grade level for each word in the same list. We love this app!!!

  • Impressive

    This app is not only a great way to test your child on their weekly spelling words, but it also has a couple of fun ways to study the words during the week before the actual test! They practice, and want to, on their iPads every morning during the car ride to school! Ever since we started using this app they haven't gotten less than 90% on their tests!

  • What a waste!

    What a waste of money! Got tricked by Mathboard success. But this application is just rubbish. Key features don't work. Need my money back.
  • Truly a fantastic spelling app!!

    First of all, we love this app!! With some tweaks and additions to the newest version it's Five stars for us! The only thing I'm not super fond of is the fact that the app automatically alphabetizes the quiz list and word lists. We enter the words in the order (numbered) that they are on my sons spelling words sheet and then they get mixed up by the alphabetization. Perhaps that should be an option?

    It took me a bit of playing around and exploring to figure out how to sort word lists, but the new save sequence when entering words for a quiz makes everything a lot easier and productive. I also love, love, love, the option of adding a photo!!! That is a phenomenal option for children who have any learning challenges or even for younger children just starting out with spelling. It gives another level of association to words and spelling!

    Thanks so much for a truly useful and enriching app! By the way… we also use and LOVE MathBoard!! Highly recommend both of these apps!!
