Are you ready to get some of those hours back?! Take a look at these fabulous EDITABLE Spelling Activities we have created for your students to practice their word lists.
Our Spelling Activities are super simple to use !!!

These spelling activities can be sent home as homework, used in a word work center, in small groups, or as independent practice.
* Spelling Activity Line-Up *
1. spelling list .
This is the first page you will see in the resource. All of the “magic” happens on this page! Whether you have chosen our 10, 12, or 15-word option, you will type in your word list on this page.
2. Magic Words?
One of my students’ favorite spelling activities. They write each spelling word with a white crayon and then color over the words with a marker. The spelling words MAGICALLY appear on the paper.
Spelling Activity 3. Alphabetical Order?
This activity is pretty self-explanatory. Students will organize their spelling words into alphabetical order and write them in that sequence.
4 . Rainbow Spelling?
Write the spelling words along the rainbow in different colors to practice.
5 . Write a Sentence✏️
Use each of your spelling words in a sentence. This is a great way to practice spelling words, writing, and additional vocabulary.
Spelling Activity 6. Secret Code Spelling?️
Students use the given code to spell each of their spelling words. This will definitely be a favorite spelling/word work activity in your classroom.
7 . Roll a Spelling Word?
Roll a die to see if you will be writing your spelling words in crayon, with squiggles, in multiple colors, or bubble letters. Which number did you roll the most?
8. Word Illustrations?
Choose four of your spelling words and draw an illustration for them. To add an extension to this activity, ask your students to write a sentence to go with their illustration.
Spelling Activity 9 . Word Boxes?
Is the letter tall or short? Does it stretch above the middle line or fall below? Students use the boxes to determine which word will fit as they practice spelling and writing them.
10. Trace Words?
Students can choose to trace their spelling words in pencil, crayon, or marker. Sometimes they just enjoy using a different tool to write with.
11. Emoji Spelling?
Your students love using emojis, why not put those to educational use?! LOL Students will spell the words by using the emoji code.
Spelling Activity 12. Pattern Block Spelling?
Give your students some fun hands-on spelling work with this pattern block activity. This page is great for an individual or small group center, or if you need some quiet time to catch up on assessments or small group RTI.
13. Vowels and Consonants
We all have those blue and red colored alphabet letters in our closets somewhere. Well, it is time to pull them out to spell words with. After they build the letter, students will color the consonants in blue and the vowels in red.
14. Scrabble Spelling
Combine math and word work in this activity. Students will spell each word, writing the numbers on the tiles down. Then add the numbers together to come up with each word “sum”.
Spelling Activity 15. Spin It, Spell It?
Each student will create a spinner with a paperclip and pencil. Spin the spinner and see which number it lands on. Write the word that matches the corresponding number. Was there a word that you wrote more often than all of the rest?
16. Spelling Maze
Can you find your way out of the maze? As they come to a word, have them read it, spell it, and then check it off the word list at the bottom. You can have them complete this activity with a partner as they both try to navigate through the maze. Can they guess the other student’s word after it has been spelled?
17. Spelling Spiral?
Round and round the spiral goes, how many spelling words you can fit, nobody knows…
Spelling Activity 18. Word Syllables??
Students practice separating their spelling words into syllables. Count on fingers, clap hands, or stomp feet to see how many syllables are in each word. Then circle the corresponding number.
19. Silly Writing?
Your students will have so much fun practicing their spelling words while writing upside down, or with their eyes closed.
20. Pyramid Spelling
Build your spelling words pyramid style. Start with one letter at the top and add another letter with each line as you move your way down the pyramid.
Spelling Activity 21. Spelling Rhymes
Can your students think of a word that rhymes with each of their spelling words? How many rhyming words can they come up with?
22. Spelling Colors ?
Students match the color word to the spelling word in order to write the correct word on the line under the crayon. Added bonus: students learn to identify color words!
23. Word Search
For your higher-level kiddos, this word search is GREAT! They write their words either across, down, or as a challenge, diagonal on the grid. Then place random letters among the grid. Share with a partner to see if they can find all of your “hidden” words.
Spelling Activity 24. Word Art
For your more creative students, color in the fancy letters and decorate around each of the spelling words. Plus, who doesn’t love to color?! ❤️
25. Create a Story
How many spelling words can you fit into your story? Students write a short story that makes sense and illustrate it using their spelling words.
26. Keyboard Words
Students use the computer keyboard to practice typing their spelling words. Can they put their fingers on the correct keys?
Spelling Activity 27. Stamping Spelling Words
Everybody loves dot markers!!! Grab a few different colors and stamp your spelling words as you read them.
28. Synonyms and Antonyms
For a more challenging activity, connect spelling practice with vocabulary skills by finding a synonym and antonym for each spelling word.
29. Sign Language Spelling
This will definitely be a class favorite! Your students get to learn sign language while practicing their spelling words. And it is a socially distant partner activity, as they can sign a word to a partner and see if the partner can write down the word signed.
Spelling Activity 30. How Many Sounds
Students practice sound segmentation with this activity. Sound out your spelling words and circle how many sounds those words have.
31. Shape Spelling ??
Your students can combine math and spelling skills by writing their spelling words along the inside of each shape on the page.
32. Parts of Speech Spelling
Give your spelling practice some grammar skills as well. Students will sort each of their spelling words into the different parts of speech. As an extension, can they create a Madlib with their spelling words?
Spelling Activity 33. Spelling with Both Hands ?
Are you right or left-handed? Well, with this activity, you get to practice your spelling words writing with each hand. In the end, I bet that your non-dominant handwriting will start to look pretty nice. ?
34. Silly Sentences ?
Students try to write as many of their spelling words in a sentence as they can. Once the sentence is written, they go back and underline their spelling words and count how many they used. Who can use the most in one sentence?
35. Spelling Cake ?
Oh, how I wish it was real cake… LOL. Students will write their spelling words on each layer of the cake, changing the size of the words as they move up the tiers.
Spelling Activity 36. Tablet Spelling ?
This modern-day version of keyboard spelling allows students to practice typing their spelling words on a tablet keyboard. After they type the word, they are to write it in the “text bubble” on the screen.
37. Graph your Words ?
How many letters are in each spelling word? Students can graph their words based on the number of letters in each one. Which number has the most, the least, or are there any ties?
38. Tally and Color
Students write each of their words into a box, then count the number of letters in each word. They tally each letter. Once every word has been tallied, they will choose a color for each number and color code the boxes of words.
Spelling Activity 39. Fancy Spelling
This activity will allow your students to use their creativity. They can spell their words using fancy lettering. Will they write in cursive, dotted lines, or some invented script?
40. Garden Spelling ?
Find the open spaces in the image and write your spelling words. How many can you fit within the picture? Once done, they can color the rest of the picture.
41. Flower Spelling
Students write their spelling words along the “petals” of each flower, making sure that they match in color and are spelled correctly.
Spelling Activity 42. Scribble Spelling
Write the spelling words in each of the spaces in the picture in different colors. Can you write the words without the same color being used in spaces that touch?
43. Bubble Spelling
Did you ever write words in bubble letters?! It used to be a big thing when I was in school (now I’m really dating myself… LOL). Your students can practice writing all of their spelling words in bubble letters.
44. Bubble Spelling Alternative
Just like the activity above, students will write their spelling words in bubble letters.
Spelling Activity 45. Spelling Snapshots
This is a very creative way to practice spelling words. Students will write the words on the bottom half of the polaroid square and then draw a picture to illustrate that word at the top.
46. Spelling Jellybeans
Students write their spelling words on each jellybean in the jar. Continue writing your words until the entire jar is full.
47. Stamp Spelling
Do you have letter stamps? If so, then this is a great word work center activity. Students will spell their wordlist by stamping them in each of the boxes.
Spelling Activity 48. Yoga Spelling
Bring mindfulness and calming techniques into your classroom while practicing academics. Each word is next to a yoga pose. After they write a word, they are to practice that pose.
49. Spelling Strings
Raise your hand if you have alphabet beads in your classroom. ??♀️??♂️ Using the beads, students will spell their words on the “string” given in each box.
50. Text Your Words
In the new technology age, our students are well-versed with cell phones. They will LOVE this spelling activity!!! Students will write the word on the line, and then the number code needed to text it to a friend.
Spelling Activity 50. Spelling Tic-Tac-Toe
Students will play tic-tac-toe by trying to write three of their spelling words in a row before their partner can do it. Make a bunch of copies of this worksheet and place them in a center. It is a “fun” way for students to practice their spelling words without really knowing it.
52. Spelling Riddles
This is another activity for your higher students. They will create a riddle about one of their spelling words and write it down. Once they have written all of their riddles, they will trade their paper with a partner and see if their buddy can figure out what words they were describing.
53. Spelling Battleship
Just like the famous board game, students will each have two papers. There grid to write their words on and the other to record their hits on their partner’s grid. Instead of laying down ships, they will write their words vertically or horizontally on the grid. Once all of the words have been written, it is time to play. Guess the letter/number combination to see if you get a ‘hit’ or a ‘miss’.
Activity 54. Spelling Squares
Who has played this game in the fun children’s menu magazine or placement that you sometimes get?! Students will write play against a partner, trying to build squares. Once they have boxed in a square, they will need to write a spelling word inside. Such fun!!!
55. Doughy Spelling
Playdough meets spelling words in this fine motor building activity. Students will spell their words by rolling out and shaping playdough for each word. This is one activity your students will quietly sit and do for a LONG time!
56. Build Your Words
LEGO your way to completing your spelling words. Using the famous bricks, build each of your spelling words.
Spelling Activity 57. Hopscotch Spelling
Use this miniature mat to practice spelling words. Students will write their spelling words in the spaces. Then, using a small game piece, such as a button, they carefully toss it onto the paper. Wherever it lands, you will ‘hop’ to and read the word under the button. You can also recreate this activity outside by drawing the words and hopscotch in chalk.
58. Spy Spelling
Use the spy code at the top of the paper to spell each word. Students will write the numbers that correspond to the letters under each word. Make sure to add dashes between the numbers.
59. Words Inside Spelling
Using the letters inside each flower, how many “new” words can you make? Write each new word onto a petal.
Spelling Activity 60. Write the Room Spelling
Get your students up and moving with this spelling center activity. Each word will be printed on the card that corresponds to a picture. Students will carefully walk around the room, locating the different cards you have placed around the room. When they find a card, they need to write down that word next to the corresponding image.

Spellings - Tips for parents
One of the best ways that you can help your child's education at home is to support them with their spellings. We have made this easy for you with our print at home spelling worksheets for all years. These focus on the essential words your child needs to know to become top of the class in their spellings.
If you are unsure of what level of spelling your child is at, take our new online spelling test (links above) to find out. Start with the test appropriate to their year and the results will give advice on whether their level should be higher or lower.
What if my child is really behind on their spellings?
It's not uncommon to be lower than where they should be. But don't worry you can close this gap. Our spelling sheets work from Monday to Friday and there are fewer sheets than there are weeks in a year. So by using weekends and continuously working through the years, there is every chance of catching up.
Say your child knows half the words from a particular year but they need to fill in the gaps of the ones they don't know. Test your child first on the spellings for that week. Any words they don't know straight away without seeing them should be the ones they are tested on. Leave the others out and they will soon catch up.
Did you know?
Helping your child become confident at spelling allows them to focus on the content of their writing rather than worrying about the spelling of words.
Future exams take away a percentage of marks for poor spelling. This can make all the difference in that grades they are awarded.
Reading can improve spelling. When your child reads more often they will start to recognise words that look wrong.
It's never too late to do something about poor spellings.

Kindergarten Spelling Words
Our kindergarten spelling words are broken down into a scope and sequence across 36 weeks to take you from the beginning of school through the whole school year! As you can see by the curriculum sheet, we start off the program with beginning sounds (week 1-3), then move on to onset/rhyme words (weeks 4-9), CVC short vowel words (weeks 10-18), consonant digraphs (weeks 19-24), ending CK words (weeks 25-27), and CVCe words (weeks 28-36). In addition, we include bonus words and more than 100 Dolch sight words like “like”, “will”, “away”, “one” and “off”. You’ll find each of the kindergarten spelling words lists below in individual, printable PDFs. Before you get started be sure to download the printable scope and sequence sheet .
What is the Spelling Curriculum? This spelling curriculum provides weekly lists of words, which progress according to phonics skills which are developmentally appropriate for students to learn, as well as bonus words to provide extensions for students who require a bit more of a challenge.
How can this curriculum help students learn to read and write? This curriculum follows methods which have been proven to help learners progress in their reading and writing skills at this grade level. In third grade, students should be familiar with many of the patterns taught in these lists, therefore those skills will become the building blocks for reading and decoding larger words, and making meanings from those words.
What research supports this curriculum? This curriculum uses a research based, systematic approach to phonics instruction. Phonics skills taught build on each other, and skills previously taught are incorporated in later word lists to activate learner’s schemata and build connections between new information and information previously learned.

This website offers easy interactive spelling practice for kids in early elementary years (grades 1, 2, 3 and 4). Just type, listen and learn English - learning spelling can be as simple as that!
In this page you set up which words to test students on. The next page - after you hit the “Online Spelling Test” button - lets the kids tackle the spelling test and check their performance.
This free spelling website acts like an online computer program, in which you can create your own spelling lists, and have word games with your own words. All the games and the other educational interactive activities on this website are totally free!
The Word's Pronunciation
You can also use this website to learn how to pronounce English words. Each word is pronounced slowly and clearly, stressing and emphasizing each syllable and consonant. This makes it great for ESL students and special education students as well, helping to discover new English words and their correct pronunciation.
The Spelling Games & Activities
Online spelling test.
This is a simple test in which you hear the words of your list in random order, and type them inside the text boxes. Do your best to spell them correctly. At the end, you can press the "Check" button to see how well you have done. If you made a mistake, you can click a mistaken word to see its correct form. You can also ask to repeat the test with only the mistaken words.
Practice Your Words
This online practice will guide you step by step until you know how to write each word correctly just by hearing it. It consists of three phases: in the first phase, the letters to type are highlighted on the keyboard. in the second phase the word will still be presented, and you will copy it. In the third phase, you will type it from solely hearing it.
Reading With Spaceships & Reading With Balloons
These are two similar games, one in is more action themed, and the other is calmer. They practice reading the words and matching them to the words you hear. It's an easy reading activity, best for kids in 1st grade and 2nd grade.
Spelling Sharks
This is an action online spelling game. When you type correctly the words you hear, you can eliminate the sharks that are threatening the goldfish. The typing is under time pressure, yet you can press the "clue" button to have the word flashed on the screen. This activity can be challenging, and is more suitable for kids in 3rd grade and 4th grade.
This is a classic hangman game, using your own words. It's unique because you can actually hear the hidden words.
Word Search Puzzle
Immediately create a challenging online word search puzzle from your own list of words. After every word you find, you will hear it pronounced. The puzzles are dynamically created, and can sometimes be challenging even for kids in 5th grade and 6th grade.
The Spelling Lists
The lists are arranged in stages that coordinate to the children's development through spelling patterns, also called features. The beginning lists for first graders allow the kids to approach the words one sound at a time (i.e. initial consonants), to then building more of a sight word vocabulary (i.e. word families). Moving on from there, learners in second grade are able to chunk parts of words and process them more fluently when they read (i.e. consonant blends). Third graders continue the fluency of reading while they explore the meanings of words (i.e. silent consonants), while fourth graders can handle more complex spelling patterns (i.e. double consonant with e-drop). Of course, a student may overlap in stages, for instance, a second grader may still need some work on a few "first grade" features, or may dabble in some third grade features. They are merely an average "snapshot" for students in elementary school. In addition to the lists for each grade level, there are many "themed" lists for students of all ages to enjoy (themes such as September, Halloween, Winter, Earth Day, Science Day etc.) Spelling and studying words ultimately promotes a greater interest in reading and writing. When a child has word understanding and vocabulary knowledge, all aspects of Language Arts are enhanced.
Instructions
Which English words would you like to study? Type them into the empty spaces above. Once you do, you can click on the “Listen” button to hear how the word you typed is pronounced. Sometimes there is more than one way to pronounce a word - for example, “read” sounds different in the past: “I read this book yesterday” to the way it sounds in the future: “I will read this book tomorrow”. In this case you can hit the “Alternate” button to switch between the different pronunciations and choose the right one. You can also choose from the word lists we've prepared already in the drop-down menu. When you have finished adding words, choose an activity from one of the green buttons. The spelling list will appear for the students. They should read it carefully and, when ready, start the activity. When finished, the students will have the option to restart the activity or to exit to the main menu. In most cases, they will also get the option to repeat the activity with only the words they had trouble with.
Happy learning!
