Free Spelling Apps:
-        The Electric Company Wordball!
o   The Electric Company Wordball is a phonics game that integrates video clips from the TV show to teach reading and spelling. The game consists of two parts: watching a video about a letter sound or letter combination and tapping the "wordballs" with the featured letter or letter combination; then using the collected wordballs to complete words as they move across the screen. The object of the app is to teach lessons about phonics, reading, and spelling.
-        Chicktionary *primarily for 2-4*
o   Chicktionary is a chicken themed spelling and vocabulary-building word game. Children create as many words as possible out of seven letters. Completed words can be tapped to view their definition. There are multiple levels and children can choose a timed or untimed mode. *Note: This is a noisy app — incorrect words receive scolding squawks.
-        Spell Well Lite
o   Help Wordy the frog build a beautiful magic garden by spelling words correctly.
-        Spelling Bus
o   Spelling Bus is for learning to spell and practice to spell. Kids see the pictures and listens to the word and then type the spelling.
-        Cimo Spelling Sight
o   This is a great app for kindergarten through 3rd grade children. It teaches a combination of high frequency and sight words (from the Dolch Sight Word list).
