⚡ Word Rush

What Word Rush is

Word Rush is a spelling game for Years 2–6. You are shown a sentence with a word missing, and four spellings to choose from. Only one is right, and the clock is running. Each round lasts 90 seconds.

Spelling is the part of English that rewards seeing a word often. A game gets a child in front of far more words than a worksheet does, because they want another go.

How it is put together

• A separate ladder for each year. 5 tracks, one for each of Years 2–6, so a Year 3 child is not being asked Year 6 questions.
• 100 levels per year, 10 questions each. That is 5,000 questions in all, and they get harder as the ladder goes up.
• The first 5 levels of every year are free. No account is needed to try them. The rest come with a subscription.
• A weekly leaderboard. Your best score on each level counts, and the board starts fresh every Monday, so a good week is always within reach.

Common questions

Is Word Rush free? The first 5 levels of all 5 year levels are, without signing in. Everything beyond that is part of the subscription.

What year is it for? Years 2–6. You pick the year, and the questions are pitched to it.

How long does a game take? About 90 seconds a round, with 10 questions in a level. It is designed for a few minutes at a time rather than a long sitting.
