Unscramble words or fill in a missing letter to make the Cat play a sound. Watch out though, if you get it wrong Kenny Cat scolds you with a horrible song. Good Luck!

Spelling Cat is a feline and jazz themed education tool designed to help the player improve their spelling ability. Players challenge their ability to spell words correctly in mini-games. The game incorporates word comprehension attuned to the particular grade level, based upon excerpts from grade-appropriate reading materials. The game is also designed to be flexible enough to assist anyone regardless of his or her spelling proficiency. A central feature of the game is the creation and customization of word lists to use in the games. One of the key functions of this app is that teachers can create their own word lists for students to study. The mini-games included are:

Speak Easy – The game will speak a word from the list and the player must spell the word correctly.

Scramble – Each letter of the word is scrambled up! Drag the letters into the correct order to spell the word in your list.

Missing Letter – Identify the missing letter in the word and then drag it to its correct location.
