I have compiled the 100 words for the Schonell graded spelling test, for those that know; the tests will give you the student’s spelling age. What I have done is narrate the 100 words and saved them as mp3 audio files. The rar file below has all of the resources. http://www.fileserve.com/file/juD3atc/schonell spelling words.rar

I am looking for resources on what to do with the results of the Schonell test. How does one analyze the results of the misspelled words on this test? For example, if a student misspelled 'net' by spelling it 'nit', what does this tell me? How do I use the results from the Schonell to inform my instruction? Does this student have difficulty differentiating the short 'e' sound? I am presuming that the words selected for the Schonell pinpoint specific spelling patterns. So, where does one go with the results of the test? I'd LOVE to hear back from anyone on this ;) Thanks!

There are errors in the list. The definition given for 'dot' (item 12) is an American-English definition of a full-stop (period) and not British English - and not used in the National Curriculum. Item 13, 'sight'', has the wrong definition. The definition given is for the word 'site' ('Longbarn is our new school sight'). Item 83, 'broach', also has the wrong definition. 'Broach' usually means to make a hole in something or to raise a topic; 'a decorative pin worn by women' is spelt 'brooch' and not 'broach'.

Thank you for this. I have used Schonell in the past simply for a good way to check on progress as well as being diagnostic. This resource is now up to date and will be a useful tool for me.
