What real teachers have to say about DoodleSpell
“We do notice that children who regularly interact with Doodle are generally more secure in class. Additionally, a benefit of Doodle is that children are regularly exposed to varied learning content outside of lessons, which helps to keep their skills fresh.”
“Our internal data suggests that the children who use Doodle regularly make greater progress than their peers. An example would be Year 5 pupil who initially struggled with his work in mathematics but is now slightly above age-related expectations.”
“We no longer have to set and mark homework. It helps teachers to see gaps in children's learning and offers way to support and encourage them to continue to progress.”
“[DoodleSpell] is used as part of a carousel of activities during guided reading, as homework, as way to practise weekly spellings sent home and for extra consolidation/extension.”
“As a parent I like that I can set the spellings that my daughter's school have set her as an extra on Doodle.”
