From the teacher's desk...
Spin and Spell


Spin and Spell is a great website that children of all ages will enjoy. You simply pick a category, spin the wheel, and spell the word by clicking on the letters on the wheel.

To play by yourself:
1. Click on the picture you want to spell.
2. Dial the first letter on the wheel by clicking it with your 
    mouse. The wheel will spin and your letter will appear
    below.
3. Then dial the rest of the letters and click "Submit"
    when you are finished.
4. If you think you made a mistake, click "Clear" and 
    start over.
5. The picture will enlarge and the word will display if
    you spelled it correctly. "Sorry, Try Again" will
    appear if you spelled it incorrectly.
6. If you are unable to spell the word correctly and want
    to see it, click "Show Me The Word."

Your child will love this game. It is a great game to play with multiple players. I have used this game in my classroom and all of my students have enjoyed playing and spelling new words together.

Happy spelling everyone,
