Spell Like a Ninja: Top tips, rules and remedies to supercharge your spelling

Product Information

At the end of the test, children can see how many they got right and the correct spelling for each word. This resource has learning theory and teaching built-in two, with regular opportunities for space retrieval. Each resource works with three to four week cycles, where each week a specific grammatical concept is focused on. Every third of fourth week, a mixed skills activity is embedded which gives activities that cover the previous three-week’s teaching and learning. Meaning that students have the opportunity to return to previous learning and go over it, giving it an increased chance of being retained in the long-term. The code name of the scoring standard is “ SNJFIX1” (Acronym for Spelling Bee Ninja Fixed Version 1).

The time taken to complete the test is not considered by the system:no matter ifthe spelling training session will take 10 minutes or one hour for the student to complete, this is because stress is not a good friend when learning. Choose standard if you want the test to use words suitable for your grade, hard if you want some words from higher grades and harder if you want even more hard words (the harder the level the higher your potential score in Official Tests).

From Andrew Jennings (@VocabularyNinja), the bestselling author of Vocabulary Ninja and Write Like a Ninja, this is an essential toolkit of strategies and resources to supercharge primary school children and transform them into spelling ninjas! Even though some editing operations are allowed (such as removing words), the Error list is automatically handled by the system, the (automatically) added misspelled words are automatically removed once spelled correctly in a spelling test. Our online spelling tests are split into children's age groups, from Year 1 (when children are between 5 and 6 years old) all the way up to Year 6 (when they are between 10 and 11 years old).Smart Training (Review): take a spelling test provided by the Smart Training algorithm in review mode, to verify the words you learned ( see smart training documentation). Once a spelling test is finished, Spelling Bee Ninja will update the information associated to the student accordingly with test results, the errors list is updated and the system assumes the student has learned the words spelled correctly during test.

The research shows that spelling helps children master the alphabetic principle and also has a positive impact on reading.” - Dr. Rebecca Treiman, Professor of Child Developmental Psychology and Director of the Reading and Language Lab at Washington University the statutory spelling requirements for every year as well as the statutory word lists for Years 3, 4, 5 and 6; The app voice will invite you to press the Next Word button (or enter key on your keyboard) to proceed with net word. Also, a list of the words used in the test is reported and the corresponding answers given by the student; the misspelled words are reported in red using a strike font. A skipped word is not considered as bad as a misspelled one but skipping words will limit bonus points (this to encourage the student to try hard to understand and also because a misspelled word is easier to remember than a skipped one).A report card is generated and added to the other tests results by the same student, a dialog will appear giving the possibility to review your results immediately. Unfortunately, for many children, this does not happen. Instead, reading is an onerous chore where they have to repeatedly stop to spend time and effort sounding out a slew of words. Every one of our games is a simple, online, multiple-choice spelling quiz. Children listen to the word, then the word within a sentence and finally the word again. They then have four choices and must select the correct spelling. Spelling Ninja, developed based on decades of research, guides students to rapidly develop the essential visual memory skills that lead to effortless spelling as well as reading and writing.

Define: this button will pop up a dialog showing the current word definition, of course the word itself will be hidden in the definition window. Personal Tests: after the first three options handled by the system, you will find your own spelling lists sorted alphabetically, spelling tests taken using a custom spelling list are referred as Personal Spelling Tests.Reading depends on rapid, smooth decoding. It's what allows a good reader to look at words and instantly recognize what they are "saying" (that is, decode them into real words). Fortunately there is a solution which may be a bit unexpected – since it rests not in reading but in writing. Reading often can be achieved without "exactness." For example, if you show a young child a long word starting with el and ending with ant, the chances are that he or she will say ("correctly") that it is the word elephant. The cues are sufficient to make this "guess." Writing, or at least accurate writing, is not possible if this kind of rough approximation is used. For a word to be written accurately, each and every letter must be noted and placed in the correct sequence. That's why writing holds the key to both successful reading and writing.
