Personal Tests: after the first three options handled by the system, you will find your own spelling lists sorted alphabetically, spelling tests taken using a custom spelling list are referred as Personal Spelling Tests.Fortunately there is a solution which may be a bit unexpected – since it rests not in reading but in writing. Reading often can be achieved without "exactness." For example, if you show a young child a long word starting with el and ending with ant, the chances are that he or she will say ("correctly") that it is the word elephant. The cues are sufficient to make this "guess." Writing, or at least accurate writing, is not possible if this kind of rough approximation is used. For a word to be written accurately, each and every letter must be noted and placed in the correct sequence. That's why writing holds the key to both successful reading and writing.

The 300 remainingpoints are sharedbetween E xecution F actor(max 180 points) and C ourage F actor(max 120points). If a very high score is reached in an official test, SBN could release on official certificate of achievement. Out of a total of 1100 points achievable,800 are determined by the percentage of correct words (or correctness factor), So this means that spelling correctly all the words proposed by the test will earn 800 points. At the end of the test, children can see how many they got right and the correct spelling for each word. My son really enjoyed Spelling Ninja! He completed the entire course in a few weeks. Before that, he had been struggling through a workbook spelling course, and I feel his spelling really did improve as a result. Parents looking for something different or who are dealing with reluctant spellers should be pleased.” - Linsey Knerl, parent
