## What is Ducklis?

Help children practice dictation and spelling independently at home or in the classroom.

DuckLis lets parents and teachers create word lists by scanning a textbook, typing words manually, or pasting existing content. The finished list can be played automatically for dictation, spelling, and vocabulary practice.

Word lists can also be shared as images or QR codes. A teacher, parent, or family member can send a list to another device, where it can be imported and used immediately.

Multiple Ways to Create Word Lists

• Scan textbooks, worksheets, and vocabulary pages• Select part of a photo and recognize text with OCR• Type words, phrases, or English vocabulary manually• Paste homework messages or existing word lists• Organize recognized text into a ready-to-use practice list

Customizable Voice Playback

Adjust playback to match each learner’s pace:

• Number of repetitions for each word• Pause between words• Voice playback speed• Sequential or shuffled order• Automatic continuous playback

During practice, learners can move to the previous word, continue to the next word, or replay the current word at any time.

Review Difficult Words

After practice, mark incorrect or difficult words and save them to a review list.

The next session can focus only on those words, making repeated practice easier and more effective.

Share Lists with QR Codes

Create a shareable image or QR code from any word list.

Teachers can share lists with a class, while parents and family members can quickly transfer practice content between devices. Scan the QR code to import the list and start practicing.

Great for:

• Spelling and dictation practice• Vocabulary and phonics review• English word practice• Homework and home learning• Reviewing incorrect or difficult words• Sharing word lists between teachers and parents

From photo recognition and voice playback to mistake review, DuckLis makes daily dictation practice easier to prepare and complete.
