SpellQuizzer Review for TOS Crew

Posted in TOS Crew Reviews

Click on the banner to go directly to the website.

Vendor:  Spell Quizzer

Cost: $29.95 for a lifetime license use, this includes free upgrades.

Age Range: Kindergarten on up.

One of the areas that I fall behind on in our home-educating is spelling.  I've used several spelling workbooks but we do not have a good system to learn or reinforce spelling lessons in our home.  Spelling is the only area on Jennifer's Iowa Test's this year that she didn't meet or exceed grade level. Although her scores were just a little behind,this area has me prayerfully looking for a way to beef up her/our spelling lessons this year. 

After reading about SpellQuizzer on their website, I was thrilled to get an invitation to review it.  Spellquizzer was developed by a parent to aid his two children in their weekly spelling list.  It is a great way for our children to use their interest in computers to learn spelling.  SpellQuizzer is a software product that helps children master their spelling and vocabulary. Using SpellQuizzer you can create custom word lists to match any spelling or vocabulary curriculum you are using or just to focus on a child's "problem words". Best of all: SpellQuizzer makes spelling and vocabulary practice engaging for your child!

How it works:

The program is downloaded directly onto your computer.  Then you can begin your child with one of the premade spelling lists there or you can enter your own spelling lists.  You record each word with a sentence that uses the word.  To make it more fun and engaging you can also record using silly voices and sentances.  Or maybe have the child's grandparents record the spelling list for the week. 

The program quickly loaded on to my computer.

This is the main screen, to show you how simple and easy it is to get started.

In our home, the review:

I had Elizabeth try out this program last week using one of the pre-made lists.  She used the frequently misspelled words for 2nd graders.  It was fun for her!  And later she was spelling out loud the words using the sentences for that list.  She asked me several times that day and week, can I please do my spelling again? 

Although I have not retested her for retention, she will be using this program throughout the summer to facilitate her spelling.  When Jennifer's schedule slows down I will be having her work on spelling using this program as well. 

In our home this product gets this grade:

A

It is academically strong, easy to use and affordable.

Plus there is a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee!
This is taken directly from the website.

Purchase SpellQuizzer 100% risk free. If you are not satisfied with the software just request a full refund within 60 days of your purchase and your money will be returned to you. You can purchase SpellQuizzer risk free for $29.95
