The Spelfabet shop has affordable, downloadable spelling teaching resources.
Hi spelfabet, just letting you know that 5th graders are actually using this website. The teacher is saying that some of these words are just made up. Listen if you want good ratings try and use some real words not just made up ones. If you also want this to be a child friendly and a school recommended website please to improve. Just the heads up.
Hi, thanks for the feedback, but these are all real words, though some of them are names e.g. Antigone is a character in Greek legend, her name is in the Macquarie dictionary. Maybe the teacher doesn’t know all the words, but that doesn’t make them non-words. The lists on this website are not intended for 5th graders, they’re for adults to use in selecting words that are suitable for their learners which share a spelling pattern. A class studying Antigone would be interested in spelling her name, but if the teacher doesn’t know who Antigone is, and the class is not learning about her, then obviously that’s not a word that the teacher would select.
