Test yourself using the Listen and Spell test.
In this list, the long -o sound at the end of each technical term is spelled with just the letter o. These words are often used in scientific or technological contexts.
For instance, stereo refers to sound that comes from two or more directions, giving a sense of depth. Video and audio are terms used to describe visual and sound content. Some words, such as dynamo and micro, are rooted in scientific principles —a dynamo creates electricity and micro means very small.
Learning these words will help you become more familiar with technology-related language.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
