Using the site at home
This website offers a fun way for your child to improve their spelling. There are 3 games designed for children between 7 ­ 11 years old.

In each game the child is drawn into a story and has to follow a quest or solve a mystery by doing some spelling challenges. If your child makes a mistake, the game will automatically offer them some help. This means they can work through the challenges on their own.

Many children will enjoy the games more if they play with a friend. They'll find it easier to say the words out loud and have a giggle over some of the 'say it silly' spelling strategies.

Don't forget to write down the clues as you go along so, if dinner-time interrupts a game, it can be continued later. Once your child has collected all the clues in a game, click on the Finished button, type in the clues and see how the story ends

Games

Your child can play the games on the computer or print out each challenge and do it on paper. See theNon-flash site.
