Meet the newest Wordshark, ‘Wordshark Online’ – a trusted resource for spelling, developed by specialist teachers and bought almost entirely on recommendation.
“Feedback from the teachers has been really fantastic…it’s just a BRILLIANT program.” Chris Skrzypko, St George Preca School
Wordshark has unique depth and quality, drawing on 25 years’ experience in meeting the wide-ranging learning needs of students…
Web-based – great for homework
Access Wordshark from anywhere, including on Chromebooks or iPads. Students can access their work at home as well as at school. Teachers can plan lessons when and wherever they want and view progress.
Automatic Progression
A new baseline test places each student at the best starting point. They can work independently and move forward with their own individual learning journey. This gives teachers more time to focus on help where it is really needed.
The best of all worlds
Wordshark offers great flexibility. Use the Supershark course with its automatic progression, or set work for students using one of the other courses or using your own word lists!
New features
Wordshark has a new look, an easy-to-use interface, photos and videos and more whilst keeping the features that work! Age-neutral graphics are suitable for older students as well as the younger ones.

10,000 words & sentences
Courses include National Curriculum spellings, Alpha to Omega, High frequency words, and Everyday vocabulary for students new to English. Word lists are presented in a format to support your spelling lessons. Your own lists can also be added.
Dyslexia, SEND, EAL
Even reluctant students are motivated by Wordshark! Multi-sensory, carefully thought-through games and structured word lists make the program ideal for SEND. The courses and games are perfect for students learning English as an additional language.
Age & gender neutral
The choice of activities, concepts and words make Wordshark suitable for ages 5-16, from early introduction to phonics right through to spelling support in secondary school, filling gaps in knowledge or for learning specialist vocabulary.
The games
Each motivating game has a sound educational purpose helping to develop a variety of reading and spelling skills – not just rote practice. There are also games for synthetic phonics.
Adaptable & easy to use
Wordshark is easy to use but also hugely versatile – easily adjusted to the needs of each student. You can set work, use automatic progression or ‘dip’ into the program…and you can create your own words lists.
Measuring Impact
Wordshark records track time spent on games and shows results – with errors clearly highlighted. Regular, short sessions and a mixture of games e.g. using ‘Supershark’ ensures success!

Why it works
No student is the same or learns in the same way, so Wordshark adapts to each of their needs, providing a wide choice of words, games, and options.

Students also enjoy the reward activities, gaining confidence through independent learning.
- Every game builds a different skill in reading and spelling
- Options, settings and more make the program highly adaptable
- Students can work independently, at their own level
- Wordshark offers rote practice, in addition to introducing necessary skills
