I have just come across the best online spelling site ever called Spelling City. As a teacher you can create an account (for free), create your spelling lists, and have students practice their spelling words, play spelling games with the words, listen to the words being spoken, and actually take a spelling test. The test is then scored and the results can be printed out showing the incorrect spelling - corrected spelling and the score in a percentage.
Actually one teacher at a grade level can enter the word list and all the students at that grade level can then use the list. Students do not need an account, they just find the list by teacher name or list name. You can also vary the number of words on a list.
What a unique way to address spelling in the classroom. Oh, and by the way, students can also access this from home to practice!

Hi Arlene,
Checked out the link - it was simple to use and looks like it'll be a lot of fun for the kids. I already entered the words for our next reading selection, as well as the additional word lists. Thanks so much for posting this. :)
