Frequently asked questions
▸What spelling words should a Grade 3 student practise?
Two- and three-syllable everyday words — the kind that appear in their own writing, like remember, brother, and surprise. The Grade 3 band here is built from that vocabulary and also includes some common one-syllable words.
▸How many words make a good Grade 3 list?
Ten to twelve is the sweet spot — enough to cover a pattern, short enough that the copy column gets real attention. Set it with the word-count stepper.
▸Can my whole class use the same word list?
Yes. The web address stores your exact worksheet, so sharing the link gives every student the identical sheet — useful for homework lists and fair weekly checks.
▸What is the difference between the difficulty levels?
Core words draws from the most essential words in the grade band, On level matches typical mid-year expectations, and Challenge words pulls longer or less predictable words for spellers who need a stretch. The level changes the words, and on Missing Letters also the number of gaps (one, two or three); which exercise you get is set by the page you open.
▸Do I need an account to generate worksheets?
No. Everything runs in your browser with nothing stored on a server — the link itself is the save file, and generating PDFs is free without any sign-up.
