Students & Parents,

Working on spelling can truly help students enjoy reading and writing more. The English language is full of confusing rules and spellings; understanding these rules will assist students in appreciating the fun of learning.

I've also included Vocabulary study lists. These lists can be used for strengthening Science, Social Studies, or Math. They can also be used to prepare for the ACT/SAT tests! Students should use the games to learn these words *in context* instead of simply learning to spell them.

Please do use this great learning resource when you can. Spelling City makes learning word lists fun and easy.

**Don't forget to learn the words with sentences so there's meaning to each of them!**
