Only for students really into spelling

This app would not make a very good teaching tool. It has very limited features. There's no way to track scores, no way to see how the words were picked or what lists they were from, and no way to choose from a variety of levels besides the default beginner, easy, medium, or hard. One doesn't know what each of those levels entails until they start playing the level. There is no reason for a student to want to come back to it time and time again. There's nothing flashy to catch their attention, no way to connect their progress or challenge friends. This app would also benefit from allowing teachers to customize and add their own lists. That way if the default levels are too hard, they can modify it to meet the needs of their students. Even then though there still would be nothing to keep the student wanting more of it.

I tried to use this site with my middle school learning support students. I am not sure how the levels of the words are determined and they found most of it to be too difficult for them. I could not figure out a way to customize the word list. They also did not like that their scores could not be saved and we had to write them down. If they received a poor score and clicked on try again you may not get the same word list so you weren't really trying to improve on the same list. I would not recommend using this with students who need to be engaged in what they are doing.
