The letters wor often make the /er/ sound after w. This pattern appears in many common words. For example, a worm is a small, wriggling creature, and the world is the planet we live on. Some wor words describe value, like worth and worthless, while others compare things, such as worse and worst. Learning this spelling pattern can help with both reading and spelling.

"Thank goodness for Spellzone during this remote learning phase. The site is easy for students to navigate independently and they're really enjoying the activities and spelling games. You get an awful lot for your money with Spellzone. Really reassuring is the very prompt response with helpdesk queries. I've very rarely needed the helpdesk, but when I have, the issue has been addressed and sorted within a very short time."
