Everyone would like it if students took more “ownership” of their learning. Students would like it, and so would parents and teachers. VocabularySpellingCity makes it easy to give students more accountability for their own learning.
Once they’ve chosen a book or a study topic, ask them to identify some key vocabulary. They should pick words that they don’t understand, words that they like, or words that they think their classmates might like to learn. Have them create their own list on VocabularySpellingCity. It’s easy! A teacher (or parent) with a Premium Membership can navigate to List Management and click on “Allow Students to Create Lists” to enable the Student Lists feature.
