A great way to help kids learn how to spell and help them with their vocab is to make it into a game. First start off by dividing the class into two groups. Next you have one person from both groups go up to the chalk bored. You then give them a word to spell or a definition of a word. They then have to write the answer on the board as fast as they can. Who ever finishes first with the right answer wins that round. Keep score
every time two new people come up to the board. Each time have a
different person come up to the board to play. Once you have gone through all the words (you can repeat words if you want) who ever has the most points then wins.
