Say goodbye to paper lists and hello to SpellBoard—your new favorite spelling companion.
The app does what it says and provides a way to help teach you how to spell. The activities you can select from are good enough for a child to use before taking a practice quiz and then official quiz. I do wish this app could be updated to provide a user guide or some sort of video guide to help the user navigate the app. The UI could do for some visual upgrades along with newer activities.
Works well but...

I have used this app for years. It works really well. I enter the word lists and it generates activities for my students. However, recently it has started to show the words that are suppose to be spelled during a quiz. This makes the quiz unusable. Please fix this! Thank you for creating a great spelling app!
Love it

What happened?

I used this app a few years ago for my twins and loved it but now that I'm trying to use it for my second grader I can't get it to work. I've entered his spelling words but the activity button is disabled and there is no way for him to take a quiz. Not user friendly at all and as is, completely useless. Such a shame because it used to be a good app.
