About this test list: More ways to spell short /oo/

The short /oo/ sound, as in book and push, can be spelled in different ways. While oo is the most common spelling, this sound also appears in words with u, like bull and cushion, or in words ending with ould, such as could and should.

These u and ould words don’t follow the usual short /oo/ pattern, so they are best learned through practice and repetition. Try spelling them out loud and using them a spelling game to reinforce your learning.

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
