VocabularySpellingCity by SpellingCity – Featured Free App

20120731-123926.jpgI can’t believe this is a free app! The brand new VocabularySpellingCity by SpellingCity is a fun way for kids from Kindergarten right through to high school to learn spelling and vocabulary words by playing engaging learning games using any word list. The most popular activities are a spelling test, HangMouse, and the vocabulary games. The most popular lists are Sound Alike Words, Compound Words, the Hunger Games, and SAT Vocabulary. Students can access any of the hundreds of thousands of word lists available on VocabularySpellingCity including lists created by their parents or teachers.

The app includes seven learning games and activities:
• Spelling TestMe is an online spelling test that reads each word aloud, uses it in a sentence, and repeats the word. Children can work at their own pace and receive instant feedback upon submitting the completed test!
• HangMouse is a VocabularySpellingCity favorite that lets children decode each word in a friendly version of traditional Hangman. Kids love trying to figure out the word before the cat catches the mouse!
• TeachMe is a great activity to introduce a new word list to children. Each word is read aloud, spelled letter-by-letter and used in a context-rich sentence.
• MatchIt Sentences encourages children to match each sentence with the spelling or vocabulary word that best completes the sentence.
• WhichWord? Sentences is a multiple-choice game that allows children to choose from four words to determine which word best completes a sentence.
• Sentence Unscramble help kids practice sentence structure as well as using words in context by unscrambling words to form a complete sentence for each word on their list.
• Vocabulary TestMe is an online multiple choice vocabulary test. Students must choose the correct word that corresponds to each definition provided. Test results are automatically given upon completion of the test. Vocabulary TestMe is a Premium game, which may be accessed by students of Premium Members who are logged in.
