December 11, 2008 , Here\'s the News from SpellingCity: SpellingCity.com added D\'Nealian font to our handwriting worksheet options. Based on the number of user requests we received, this should have many of you applauding.
SpellingCity.com has added a new vocabulary game called MatchIt! We made some much-requested changes to the WhichWord vocabulary game. Words that are not appropriate to a classroom are no longer included as possible alternatives. We are sorry for any awkwardness that this may have caused.

Finding Handwriting Worksheets - The second most common question on the handwriting worksheets (after the request for D\'Nealian fonts) is how to access the handwriting worksheet feature. The trick is to remember that you can only print handwriting worksheets from a saved list. When you view a saved list, you\'ll see the \"Handwriting Worksheets\" option at the top of the list.
