The program is not age- or grade-related, but focuses on development and builds skills sequentially, progressing from simple three-letter words through harder multi-syllabic words. Children enjoy windsurfing, diving and other spelling games as they encounter more than 3,000 words through seven different activity sets. Features include full speech capability, plus options to use pre-selected work lists or customized lists. Work may focus on commonly misspelled words, compound words, or sentence usage drills. Teachers can individualize the program for each child. Correct answers are rewarded by a funny cartoon sequences.
