Spelling Assessments for Kids and Teens

Practice Spelling With Funbrain.com

Your child will enjoy playing the 'Spell Check Game' at Funbrain.com. The program generates words and players must identify which words are spelled incorrectly. Then, the player must provide the correct spelling. You can select an easy or hard difficulty level.

Funbrain.com also has additional games that your child can use to improve his or her spelling skills. 'The Plural Girls' game is for practicing plural forms of words and can be played in either a multiple-choice or fill-in-the blank version. Beginning readers can practice their spelling and increase their vocabulary by playing 'What's the Word?' and 'SpellaRoo.' In both games, players must match words to pictures.
