About This Spelling List: Longer oi and oy words

When it comes to longer words, the rules for using oi and oy are the same as with shorter words. For words with more than one syllable, use oi in the middle of a syllable, such as in appoint and moisture. On the other hand, use oy at the end of a word or syllable - like in destroy and voyage.

"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."
