Spelling.Live
Spelling.Live turns school spelling lists into practice activities for children in KS1 and KS2. Families can create lists by photographing a school sheet, pasting text, or entering words. Children can practise through handwriting, typing, speaking, selecting answers, tracing, or working on paper. A weekly Learning plan schedules activities and can follow weekly, fluid, or classic rhythms. Spaced repetition returns to weaker words, while difficulty adjusts to the child’s stage. AI tools provide spelling tips, picture hints, sentence generation, and handwriting marking. Teachers and tutors can create classes, assign lists, review group reports, scan paper tests for marking, and import pupil rosters from Google Classroom. Per-child settings include OpenDyslexic or Lexend fonts, colour overlays, adjustable spacing, and slower speech. The service is available on Android, iOS, and web. Free sign-up provides 200 credits, which expire after 90 days without a practice session. Paid packs cost 4.00 GBP for 400 credits or 20.00 GBP for 5,000 credits, each as a one-time purchase valid for 12 months.
