What Your Sample Session Looks Like
Watch It Flash
The word starts with 11 flashes. Adjust the bar to a comfortable pace and practise recognising its spelling.
Write It from Memory
The word disappears and your child writes it, then must spell it right to move on.
Play the Game
A short game gives your child another way to practise the same words.
Sound Like Your House?
- Guesses at words instead of reading them
- Reads slowly and forgets what the page said
- Spells the same word three different ways
- Melts down at homework time
- Falling further behind — in any grade K–12
Keep Going at Your Own Pace
Your seven-day sample starts when you open your first set while signed in. It is one set, once per account, not a new free week each week. After it ends, choose paid access to keep practising.
