Congratulations! You're about to give your kids everything they need to master 3rd grade spelling skills, all on their own. By combing the world's first AI-teachers, short lessons, and adaptive practice, children can now catch up and get ahead, all on their own. Start a 7 day free trial to see first hand how much your kids can learn, risk free. We recommend asking your children to complete 5 lessons a day. A little practice every day is the best. Feel free to pursue your passions and dreams (or nap) while students learn.  Our spelling-bee-style adaptive practice has a "secret sauce" learning algorithm, based on the 'spaced repetition learning theory'. It helps knowledge truly stick. Why learn spelling? Developing spelling skills is a highly effective way of improving a child's reading and writing abilities. Bonus: When you start a membership for this app, you unlock all 10+ apps by Class Ace covering 2,500+ skills, and 20+ innovative AI tools. There's no better investment. Features: • 70+ simple read-assist lessons • Effective, adaptive practice. Each student sees a different set of questions that get harder over time. When they make mistakes, the questions change in real-time to maximize learning and minimize frustration, following the ‘spaced repetition’ learning theory. • Text to speech. Tap on any word to have it read out loud. • Auto-play. Sit back and enjoy the whole lesson read to you. • Separate student profiles. • Teacher View: Look at charts of useful metrics. See where students are struggling, and jump in to help. • Gamification. Incredible landscapes, progress bars, and uplifting interfaces motivate students to do their best. Watch your child's grades improve with just a few minutes of regular practice. Learn Spelling was developed by a team of veteran teachers, technologists, and student testers. The app is designed by an ex-Google Product Manager to maximize learning and retention. ======= Learn Spelling is a member of the Class Ace family of apps.
