Spelling Practice

Spelling sticks best when a child sees a word, holds it in mind, then writes it from memory. This tool works from your own word list and runs the trusted Look, Cover, Write, Check routine, a calm, multisensory way to build spelling confidence. Practice on screen or print clean worksheets.

What Spelling Practice does

Copying a word over and over rarely makes it stick, and for many children with dyslexia it can feel discouraging. Look, Cover, Write, Check works differently. It asks the brain to recall the word and write it from memory, then check the result, so each round is a little step forward rather than mindless repetition. It is gentle, structured, and multisensory, which is exactly what helps spellings settle in.

Spelling Practice lets you enter your own word list, the words from school or the ones your child finds tricky, and then guides a calm Look, Cover, Write, Check routine on screen. You can also print clean worksheets for the table, with nothing leaving your device. From kindlexy.com.

How it works

  1. 1

    Look

    Your child looks closely at a word from your list, taking in how it is spelled and how it feels to read.

  2. 2

    Cover

    The word is hidden, so your child holds the picture of it in mind for a moment.

  3. 3

    Write

    Your child writes the word from memory, linking the spelling to the movement of the hand.

  4. 4

    Check

    The word is revealed so your child can compare and gently fix any letters, turning mistakes into useful feedback.

Frequently asked questions

+

What does Spelling Practice do?

You type in your own word list, the words from school, the ones your child finds tricky, anything you choose. The tool then runs a calm Look, Cover, Write, Check routine: your child looks at the word, covers it, writes it from memory, and checks. You can practice on screen or print clean worksheets.
+

Is it free?

Yes. Free, no signup, no account, and no usage limits. It runs right in your browser, and your word lists stay on your device.
+

Why does Look-Cover-Write-Check work?

It is a multisensory routine, so a child sees the word, holds it in memory for a moment, then writes it by hand. Looking builds the visual memory of how the word should appear, covering asks the brain to recall it, writing links it to movement, and checking turns mistakes into gentle, useful feedback. That loop helps spellings stick far better than copying.
+

What age is it for?

It works for a wide range, roughly five to twelve. You set the word list yourself, so you can keep it short and simple for a younger child or build longer, trickier lists as confidence grows.
+

Where is my word list stored?

On your own device, in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server. You can print a practice sheet or export your list as a CSV whenever you want.
+

Is this a diagnosis tool?

No. It is a practice aid for home use. It does not diagnose or treat dyslexia. If you have concerns about your child's spelling or reading, speak with a qualified specialist.
