About this activity

What your child practises

Skills: Unscramble the words (level 2).

Spelling topic words letter by letter and growing everyday vocabulary.

What’s included

  • 10 questions
  • An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own
  • An on-screen version with instant marking and stars

Age and school year

Made for ages 7–10. That’s Grade 2–5 in the US, Year 3–6 in England, Primary 2–5 in Nigeria and Class 2–5 in India.

How to use it

  • Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
  • Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
  • Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
  • Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Praise the sounds your child got right, even in a misspelt word – it keeps them willing to have a go.
  2. Try a few items on screen first, then print the sheet for practice without help.
  3. Ask your child to teach you one thing from the sheet; explaining is a great test of understanding.
