WordBank Method

Let Learners Open the Rule They Need

1. Choose a Rule

Select a WordBank such as RULE - Foundation - Silent E or RULE - Championship - Greek Roots.

2. Practise the Pattern

Use Learn, Practice and Test modes to reinforce the spelling rule.

3. Review Progress

Use reports and statistics to see whether the learner has mastered the pattern.

Example

A learner struggling with Greek PH words can practise only that pattern.

The learner can open a Greek PH WordBank or use Advanced Filter with Contains = PH and Word Length greater than 7.

Contains = PH
Word Length > 7
Level = Hard
