Test yourself using the Listen and Spell test.
In this list, the long -o sound at the end of each technical term is spelled with just the letter o. These words are often used in scientific or technological contexts.
For instance, stereo refers to sound that comes from two or more directions, giving a sense of depth. Video and audio are terms used to describe visual and sound content. Some words, such as dynamo and micro, are rooted in scientific principles —a dynamo creates electricity and micro means very small.
Learning these words will help you become more familiar with technology-related language.

"This is a fantastic opportunity for our students! I'm sure Spellzone will be invaluable in helping them to improve their spellings and therefore improve the quality of their writing in all subject areas!"
