Google Classroom: SSO and Import of Students: YES.
Integration with reports and assignments: Not yet.
(Get a big district to license us and insist on it…And it’s yours!)

You should be able to import your students from Google Classroom to SpellingCity. This works and is done by many thousands of teachers nad includes ongoing sync. I read your comment as about going the other way which we don’t do.

Good question. But no. We work well with Google Classroom for rostering and for SSO. We have not yet done the tight assignment and reporting level integrations.

Heather, This is a valid but controversial point. The systems for categorizing and portraying the phonemes or sounds in English are a topic of much debate. Some argue about how granular we should be in distinguishing sounds. Some argue that that 44 sounds is too few, it’s really 51. The system we implemented is sort of a consensus view although I wouldn’t won’t to debate any of the details including your point which has relates in part to the treatment of R controlled vowels. It’s always a judgement call. Our focus was on simplifying the portrayal of sound-letter correspondence, not on refining or even distilling what the categories of sounds are. I would love to return to focus on that. I would also love to work on machine recognition of those sounds and to give good feedback to young readers of whether they are correctly saying the sounds.

Thank you and sorry to be so picky!
