Sharpen your spelling skills with this interactive test.
In English, the letter combination au often represents the /or/ sound when it falls at the beginning or in the middle of a word. Some common words with this pattern include launch, autumn, and fault. The au spelling is never used if the /or/ sound is at the end of a word.
Be cautious of similar sounds that have different spellings, such as all or call, as well as words that use the or, ore, and aw spelling patterns to spell the /or/ sound.
Regular use of the spelling activities and exposure to words spelt with the letters au will help you become a proficient speller.

"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."
