"Do you find difficulty in spelling and grammar? Even if you are a native English speaker, you might be perplexed by grammatical laws, and you might find yourself spending a lot of time poring over your draught file, trying to figure out what needs to be changed. Grammar checker apps can be extremely useful in this situation. They go far beyond the traditional spell checker in that they can detect instances where you have used an accurate word in the wrong way."

To accommodate differences, Vocabulary and SpellingCity had added several lists of British spelling words and their corresponding US words.

Enter your list of words, and try several activities to learn their spelling. Teachers can save their lists. Includes automatic reading aloud and use in context. Cool!!!! Learned about it at David Kapuler's blog "Thoughts of a Cyberhero".

One of many spelling, vocabulary, and writing resources on the Vocabulary and Spelling City site, this page explains, "Asking a child to write about something that matters to him [sic] right now is a powerful motivator. This is where writing prompts come in. Writing prompts are simply ideas or subjects offered as a foundation for students to build a writing assignment on" (¶3, 2011.07.25). It includes tips for preparing writing prompts as well as examples for elementary, middle school, and high school students. Thanks to Cara Whitehead (Learning with Computers) for pointing out this site.
